I updated Spybot with new rootkit plugins. I don't see anything different. Is there supposed to be a new feature in Spybot or something in the settings about the new plugins?

I noticed this in the updates today. What is this?

I am going to try and totaly remove S&D and do a clean install. I read this http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/27.html but I have a question about the "small fix" that is recommended. How do you execute it? I click the link but what than? It' looks like a registry file I have some concerns...

I installed S&D on two computers in the last week. One is a new computer and the other is a freshly reformatted computer. The reformatted computer has no problem with S&D but the new one is a different story. Here is what is happening. 1) When I look in the help section and select "about" it...

Updated S&D today and when I went to select the download location the US location wasn't there. There are several European ones and a world one but the US one is not there.

After install I did a few scans. I noticed when the scan was finished that it found several tracking cookies but no usage tracks (they show up in green, the tracking cookies were red). From the several tutorials I have read I was under the impression that scanning for usage tracks was selected...

When I installed the Spybot program I specifically chose not to download the extra language files. It seems to have done so anyway. I know have 5 languages to choose from and will not need any but English. Can I safely remove the extra languages? Thank You.

I have read this http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/27.html about how to uninstall if necessary. I am a little confused on the use of "this very small fix" that you down load to remove registry entries. Is that only necessary for a manual uninstall or is it necessary also if the uninstall is...

According to a couple of tutorials I have read, during the installation process you are given the option of backing up/ making a copy of the registry. Couple questions about this precess. 1) If I choose not to make a back up during installation can I go back later a do it from within Spybot...

If I understand correctly the immunize feature includes two parts. The browser helper that prevents bad downloads and the permanent immunize section that makes changes to the registry and adds items to the restricted sites section of IE. Basically these features prevent bad active x controls and...

During the installation process a section comes up asking if you want to down load certain items and one of them is icons for blind user mode. What is this? TIA

Is there a thread or link to a good user guide for Spy Bot? I know there is a help guide in the actual program but is there one available to read before download? I have searched the forum and didn't find one. I have googled it also and there are some basic how to guides for install.

I was looking through the home page for S&D and in the support section there is a search feature. In the search feature you enter the search term and then select an area to be searched. One of these areas is the "knowledge base". Can some one tell me how to access the knowledge base directly so...
