Thank you......that's just the way I am, too :) Whenever there is an option, I like to do a clean install. However, I was not sure if the Hallowe'en Beta was a complete version or just a fix for the existing 1.5.1.15.

Thanks for bringing my question back to the forefront. I was still wondering whether I needed to uninstall the original version with the .16 patch or not.
"only" 8.42 MB ... wow, that made my day :)
Sorry, not joking actually... file size is quite important to us (me at least)!
Anyway, it's larger than the public 1.5, so I don't think there's anything to worry ;) The installer version always is the "full" thing (minus the updates that are downloaded separate); creating additional installer versions is a lot of work that I usually wouldn't do ;)
The orginal spybotsd15.exe installer was 7.12 MB (7,467,056 bytes). The spybotsd15he-beta1.exe installer is actually larger at 8.42 MB (8,830,056 bytes).
Oh, md usa spybot fan ist right of course!
Guess that's the newer help files (more pictures) and some other updated databases.
Not sure where your (michhalas) idea of it not being large enough comes from?
Apologies......I should have checked the setup for 1.5.1.15 on my setup backup disk which was 7.12 MB -- I would have seen that was closer to the Hallowe'en Beta .17's 8.42 MB.
But why 20MB on Add/Remove? Everything was removed when I upgraded to 1.5.1.15.
