This evening I ran the update for my Spybot S & D 1.5.2, and the last item on the list said something about 1.6. I removed the check from that one, since if figured it wouldn't work so well with...

Thanks for your reply. I guess I'll make do until Spybot 1.6 comes off beta then. (I'm not brave enough to try beta software!)
