I download newest updates for S&D and then removed the virtumonde from Recovery and then did another scan. Nothing was found! Do you still need me to send you a report from my neighbor's computer. Or...
Just a thought = Think it would be proper for you to have posted your question as a separate thread as I am getting messages when answers are posted to your question(s). Thank you.
What do you mean by:
"look for the 2 files named above"
I think there is only one files, namely: Virtumonde

Thanks all.
I will try next time I am near Vista.
By the way, if I leave TeaTimer off (don't want the pop-ups) and Security Center has "snoozing," can I presume that S&D is still working...
Hi-
No, I don't.
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...
Thanks for all your kind help.

If I am not mistaken, when I looked in View Previous Reports, I just saw todays date. No previous dates.

Thank you.
Yep, you are right. When I looked in Applications, I saw both items were checked - S&D and Defender. I un-checked both of them (don't think it will do any harm - hope it doesn't do any...
Thank you.
I will pass all this on to my son, who set-up both computers.

Thanks for the respnse.

My thanks again.

Thanks all.
I downloaded the "remove-spybotsd-settings.reg" file and saved it to my DOWNLOAD folder. That is why I was questioning how to 'run/execute' it.

Thank you. I do see the SDHelper is the only thing checked; therefore, that would have to be UNchecked when/if I uninstalled S&D.

Was just re-reading this posting and looking at my S&D. I can see where to UNDO the Immunization. But, can't see where to "Disable Tea Timer (don't believe I activated this on install)" and "Disable...
Hope I can add this add-on to this thread.
I uninstalled S&D 150 from our neighbor's (old) Sony Vaio notebook with Win98. She said she wanted to use S&D 160. I installed the 16030.
However, when...
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.

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

Great! Thanks very much. I did delete the 1.6 I previously downloaded (I did a RUN (which downloaded/installed while I was online), rather than a SAVE which would have put the setup.exe file in my...
Thanks again for your kind assitance.
I will try to download the 1.6 again tomorrow, but I just wanted to mention that the small "pop-up" box I received that read:

My original question pertained to the notice that I received...
Not sure!
I wonder if someone else who installed 1.6 on their Vista will remember and see this thread and post their reply.
I wonder if it would be "better" just to uncheck the two boxes which...

I went to the SpyBot page (while in IE7) and ran the "small fix"

Thank you. I am sorry, but I do not know what you mean.
I already installed the 1.6.

Just wanted to mention that the word was not "immunize," but the two lines I was talking about were:

That is correct:
Thank you. If/when I donwload and install S&D 1.6, will there be many differences than 1.5.2.20? Or will all the screens be the same?

I am able to immunize.
I just wanted to know if doing an immunize after each download/update was recommended.
I will now check the Immunize after each download.
Thank you all.
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.

I am trying to get to know SpyBot after just installing it and thank you for your continued help and assistance. We (husband and I) are computer novices....
Would someone please tell me when to update and when to do a scan?
Would a scan once a week be sufficient?
