No,you'd just download Spybot from one mirror(download location)
Here is a tutorial:

paul vial:

I assume that you are talking about the four (4) "Mirrors" here:
Download Spybot-S&D
http://www.spybot.info/en/mirrors/index.html
Currently: BN FileForum (http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Spybot_Search_and_Destroy/1043809773/1)
PlanetMirror (http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/spybot/spybotsd14.exe)
XTeq (http://www.xteq.de/)
Chip Online (German) (http://www.chip.de/downloads/c1_downloads_13001443.html)
They are all the same downloads and the reason that there are four (4) different "Mirrors" is redundancy and availability (if you can get to one site you should be able to download from another site).

i am not sure I understand that (in fact i do not :) )
but I thank you for helping me , and i have now succesfully downloaded using the first "mirror"
