Spybot 1.5.1.18, last updated 2Jan08.

Windows XP Home, SP2.

I just started Spybot to check the immunization, whereupon Spybot apparently (according to SpySweeper) tried to install a BHO in IE.

Closed Spybot, restarted, process repeated.

Where did this BHO install come from? It has not shown up previously, including during immunization check run perhaps two days ago. Why would the installation arise when I clicked on "Immunize"?

Should I allow the BHO? I did not, given that I'd never seen Spybot try to install it before, nor have I intentionally made any changes to IE6, which I rarely use. It is possible that a recent run of my registry cleaner removed the BHO; however, again, I've never seen this result in Spybot trying to install one.

Any answers to any other questions, asked/unasked/not-even-thought-of and/or discarded also appreciated....
