for 1 PC we are finding that Spybot finds different things according to the user logged in. We'd quite like to be able to "clean" the whole PC without having to re-scan for each user, logging in as "administrator" does not do this.

Any thoughts?

Cheers

Hello,

Which things do you mean exactly that were found?
Do you mean usage tracks?

You just have to run Spybot-S&D on one user account in order to destroy all the bad threats.
For user specific threats like tracking cookies or Usage tracks, however, you will have to run Spybot-S&D on each account.

Best regards
Sandra

Ok, this question actually came from one of my customers, who worries if spybot finds "anything". Your assurance that the real threats are eliminated whatever the user, will make him feel happy, and I'll try to explain what the other "traces" are.

Thanks for the quick response.
