I just downloaded the recent update definitions and when I checked the Immunize, there were no unprotected files. Is that possible, could there be no unprotected files (as there has been in the past? Please advise and thank you. Alice

:confused: In the past when I downloaded updates, I always had to Immunize because many categories were showing 'Unprotected.' However, today when I downloaded the March 3rd updates for my WinXP notebook and Win7 (64-Bit) desktop, I noticed that nothing was marked "Unprotected." Why wasn't...

I've had S&D on my Win98se notebook for quite a long time. Now when I try to open it, the graph appears and then the line goes from left to right and stops just before finishing. I wait and wait and it does not open. I Ctrl/Alt/Del and it states "Not Responding." I uninstalled and then...

I cannot access this forum via my IE7. I sign-in and then get sent back to the sign-in screen again. Over and over. When I switch to Mozilla, I can get in with no problem. Anyone else have same problem? Any suggestions how I can get into the forum using my IE7.

My elderly neighbor has run SB tonight and she told me it found one Problem. It states: Virtumonde - 1 entry Trojan. How would we go about helping her get it off of her old Vaio notebook which is using Win98? I posted the above on your regular SB forum and was told: "Can you give me the path...

I have SB S&D 1.6.2 on my WinXPsp3 notebook. I recently installed IE 8. I notice when I open the IE 8, that the SmartScreen Filter is not Active (not on). If I turn it ON and then exit IE 8, I find the next time I open IE 8, the SmartScreen Filter is again OFF. Every time I enter IE 8, I have to...

I just looked in the HOSTS/driver file in my Vista and there are 100s of entries in there and they all pertain to Spybot. Many, many are URLs of 'crazy' sites, such as: groundsilvercasino.net, etc. What are all of these (127.0.0.1) entires? Why are they there? This has me quite concerned and...

I have ver 1.6.2.46 and wonder if there is only one type of Scan. Is there only one Scan? Or, is there a Complete Scan and a Quick Scan, etc.? Is clicking on "Check for Problems" the only (one) way to scan in Spybot? (The reason I ask is that the scan seems to finish quite fast.)

The scan on my notebook takes about 10-15 minutes, which I think might be too short. Could it be that I am using a 'simple' scan, rahter than a 'deep' scan? Or is there only one scan? Does my time seem normal/average? Thanks.

I ran a scan tonight and for the first time, after man,, many, scans I get an exception (problem) which reads: "Tracking cook internet explorer owner. cookie owner.excite.com" I've looked all over my computer and can't find this cookie. (Also ran CCleaner before scan.) What is this and where...

My neighbor has Win98se and has been using Spybot 1.60. If she wants to install 1.62, will it over-write 1.60? Or does she have to uninstall 1.60 first and then install 1.62? Thank you.

I installed the SpyBot S&D 1.6.0.30 on my desktop yesterday and did scan. Today I downloaded some updates and did another scan. However, when I look in the Tools/ View Report/ View Previous Report. I only see today's scan listed there. Shouldn't I also be seeing the scan done yesterday? Please...

I just loaded a Zoom/Modem V.92 PC card on my old Sony Vaio with Win98. When I run my Spybot - Search & Destroy (1.6), it picks up the following file which it is claiming is MALWARE. Smitfraud.C/gp (SB)$77A6C034) "C:\windows\country.exe" When I go to this file and click on Properties it...
