Hello,

This is a little bug in version 1.4: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/news/2005-06-22.html
We have already been able to locate and fix it.

There is a new update for the resident TeaTimer availible:
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=9474

Aside from the fix of the graphical glitch so many users have been waiting for, there have been some important changes under the hood, which will reduce the number of change dialogs where the user has to decide.
TeaTimer now automatically allows any changes during the installation of other security software which follow the ASCs guideline of code-signing all files, as well as a much improved scan of the files associated with registry changes.

Please delete the files 'RegKeyWhite.sbe' and 'RegKeyblack.sbe' in order to
remove the remembered blocked or allowed registry keys. You will find them
in the folder:

* Windows 95 or 98: C:WindowsAplication DataSpybot - Search &
DestroyExcludes
* Windows ME: C:WindowsAll UsersApplication DataSpybot - Search &
DestroyExcludes
* Windows NT, 2000 or XP: C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersApplication
DataSpybot - Search & DestroyExcludes

(Please note that the Application Data Folder is hidden. So if you can't
find this folder please check your folder properties)
