[Issue 062] Not fully immunizing-a glitch?
Hi,
I just updated immunization and it is showing 237 are still unprotected. I checked again, immunized again...same thing.
Yet when I look down through each column, "unprotected", "protected" and "total...all matches up for each individual item. It's only next to Global Hosts where it shows the totals for each column that I see the discrepancy. In other words, at the bottom it shows 237 unprotected, 7288 protected and 7525 total. But as I said, reviewing each column from top to bottom for the individual items shows "0" unprotected for each and the protected/unprotected columns match up perfectly.
Is this a glitch? Does any one else have this problem? Prior to upgrading Spybot to the newer version (1.5.1.15), I never had this problem.
Any help or input regarding this problem that has me concerned will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
LTS11
RE: 'Not fully immunizing-a glitch?'-SOLVED!
Hi Sandra,
The first one I tried was unlocking the hosts file via ZoneAlarm. That SOLVED it! Global Hosts is now fully immunized. Thanks so much for your help.

Not sure which route to take for myself

If you are using Windows Vista, you should also read this FAQ entry about getting Administrator rights under Vista:

As a current solution you can try to "Undo" the Immunisation. Now the bad products are allowed.
Then "Immunize" again. This should solve the problem for now.
Some more information is available in our forum:

Another thing though is that immunization only works properly while your browser is closed, since otherwise your browser will overwrite immunization from time to time from the settings it loaded when it was started.

Hello. I have 47417 blocked; 108 remain.
I've been reading through several of these threads regarding the "incomplete immunization" problem, but I'm not sure where some people can see a list of what, specifically, is remaining (global hosts, or whatever).
I clicked on the "Add Spybot S&D-hosts list" in Tools>Hosts File...But that changed nothing.
I've run immunize several times, and even closed Spybot S&D; re-opened; immunized...But I keep getting the same numbers complete/incomplete.
I do not have the other program, "ZoneAlarm", mentioned in an earlier post.
How do I find if this involves "hosts", and how do I work with that? Thank you for your time.
