Norton tells me it has eliminated a high risk threat. Norton's name for the threat is Suspicious.Cloud.AM. Path including file name: c:\programfiler\spybot - search & destroy\updates\sdinformv2b.exe What is sdinformv2b.exe ? It may be a false positive, but it's not impossible that a Spybot...

Hi. :) I'm running Spybot 1.6.2 on Windows XP. Today Spybot wanted me to upgrade to 2.4 which has an option for antivirus. But I've already got Norton. While I don't like Symantec, Norton auto-protect is all right. I can't get back money from not using Norton so I'm not going to pay for...

Hi. I was asked to install DDS but Jack&Jill forgot to say what DDS is. I can not find any information about DDS on this forum and the topic where I got the advice is closed. I do not suspect it may be a bad program, I just need to know what I'm downloading/installing before I do it. I'll go...

Every time I immunize Spybot, it changes the cookie settings for individual sites in Opera, with the result that all cookies are deleted. The standard ("global") cookie setting in Opera is to delete everything in the cache when I close Opera. So in order to have automatic login on various...

Do you store all threads forever? I create bookmarks, but maybe I have to save it locally if you delete it from your servers.

Hi. Spybot reported Elitum.Elitebar.Pokapoka on a scan some days ago. The item that was found: Documents and Settings\name\Local Settings\Temp\~setuptmp0\irsetup.exe. Spybot removed irsetup.exe. After the next bootup, I had a look in the temp folder. The removed file was back! Now it had a...

I just scanned, and Spybot found two IE bookmarks, it flagged them as threats with red colour. Both bookmarks are to the Net-Integration forums. I tried to go there, but the server was not found. I also notice that the site is in the red zone. The two bookmarks are in a folder for pc security...

What's these hidden folders doing here? :fear: Example: C:\Documents and Settings\my name\Programdata\Macromedia\Flash Player\macromedia.com\support\flashplayer\sys\#video.google.com :spider: There is a bunch of folders under \flashplayer\sys. Seems there is one folder for many of the...
