Have had spybot a while but not registered before. When I try and update, it says 'badcheckfilesum' and file is rejected. So presumably the updates are not downloading successfully. I also read where you need to stasrt Spybot in Advanced to access some options - how do you start it in Advanced. Thanks

To start Spybot in advanced mode,you click mode up top,then select Advanced Mode,then click okay to the warning.Little word of caution(I know,I'm a pain. :) ):When first going into advanced mode,it's always best to read the help file really well,and make sure you know absolutely for sure what something does/is before making any changes.
