2 seemingly identical Spybot programs in Add + Remove Programs

[Habina]

Hi all

I hope this is the right thread for my question! It is my first posting

Going through my Add + Remove Programs in the Control panel I notice 2 copies of Spybot. One has a square icon with a magnifying glass and when I click 'support information' it says Version 1.5.2. It is 23.63MB.
The other has a Round icon (The Globe I think) with a magnifying glass, and in 'support information' it says Version 1.5.2.20. It is 33.51MB.

My Question is:
Have I somehow doubled up on the program, maybe when up-dating? OR are they both needed?

Kind regards
Habina

Habina:

No they are not both needed. But if uninstall either via add and remove programs you will most likely uninstall Spybot.

Plaese read my suggestion in post #5 of the following thread:

• S&D 1.5.2 to 1.5.2.20

Hi md usa spybot fan

Thank you for answer! I have uninstalled the one you recommend in the other thread: S&D 1.5.2 to 1.5.2.20 I did it in Add + Remove Programs, it worked a treat, it left the one which shoud be there untouched.

Thank you for helping! The thread can be closed as far as I am concerned

Kind regards
