I just downloaded the latest updates and notice there were no Unprotected 'files,' and no need to Immunize. Is that correct? I believe last week there were also no Unprotected files or no need to Immunize. Please advise.

If you have SpyBot 1.6 on Vista, what are you seeing in the Vista Security Center? Under the malware (other programs) I believe I saw that S&D has "snoozing" next to it (I can't be sure at the moment, because I am not using the Vista). Has anyone else seen the same thing? If you have, is that...

When I click on the "Check for Problems," does it always do a FULL system scan? (If not, how would I get it to do a Full system scan?) Also, I checked the 'View Previous Reports' and just see today's scan. Shouldn't I see previous scans? Is yes, why am I not seeing previous scan dates? Alice

Uninstalled previous version of S&D and installed S&D 1.6. I ran a scan and it reported "no problems." The scan took 10 minutes, which surprised me. My other scans usually take much longer. Is 10 minutes considered "normal" for a scan in S&D 1.6? Thank you.

My neighbor asked me if SpyBot 1.6 will work with NIS 2005 (WinXPsp2 / IE6)? Would anyone know?

I deleted SpyBot 1.5.2 and tried to install 1.6, however, near end of install I got the message: "Unable to execute file: C:\Program Files\Spy Bot - Search and Destroy\SD Win Sec.exe. Create Process failed; code 740. The requested operation requires elevation." What does this mean? Should I...

I just finished installing S&D 1.5.2.20 on my Vista notebooik. My husband installed 1.5.2 previoulsly on his WinXP and now he is out of state but I was talking to him on the telephone. I tried to explain to him what I experienced when I installed the S&D and there seemed to be one difference. He...

I just installed Spybot S&D 1.5.20 on my VistaHPsp1 and notice when I look in the languages, all languages are listed. Is there any way I can only have English (USA) listed (and remove all the others)? Thanks. Alice (I notice ver 1.6 is now available, but think I will wait a while to get...

After we do a download of new updates, do we have to wait for SpyBot to install them, of can we exit as soon as the downloads are made? How will we know when the downloads are complete and we can exit? Thank you. Alice

Is there some way we can open our Spybot and see: #1- When last scan was done? #2- When last update was done? Thank you.

If I am not mistaken, when I installed the SpyBot 152, I did the Immunize. However, I happened to look in the Immunize area today and notice there were some items that were not Immunized. Is that possible? Why would some items show as not immunized now, when, "I believe", I did the Immunize when...

#1- I just installed the SpyBot S&D and notice when I checked for updates that there were several updats to download. There were also three files that I did not know whether I should download or not. I did not download them. They were English description... 262kb; English help... 463kb and F/P...

Would someone please tell me when to update and when to do a scan? Would a scan once a week be sufficient? 1.5.2 Thank you.

I have an old laptop with Win98se and recently installed the Spybot S&D (1.5.2.2) using a tutoral guide my husband found on the Internet. Everything went according to the tutoral but at the end there was the following: "In the Immunize sector there is a feature that allows you to specify how...

I have one notebook with Win98SE and another with WinXPsp2. Will the Spybot 1.5.2 work with Win98SE? And, regarding the Win98SE notebook - If I install Spybot 1.5.2, will it work with the other programs I now have loaded? #1- NIS 2005 (soon to be deleted - when defs run out - and then will...
