    Unhappy Disabling Teatimer

    I need to disable teatimer without uninstalling. I saw instructions to go to the tools section, but I do not see this on my Spybot control panel. HELP!

    To disable TeaTimer and remove its startup entry:
    • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced Mode > Tools > Resident
      • Uncheck (if checked) the following:
        Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) Active.

    To temporarally close TeaTimer and restart it later:
    • Right click Spybot's TeaTimer System Tray Icon > click Exit Spybot-S&D Resident.
      • TeaTimer closes.
    • Restart TeaTimer:
      • Using Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy.
      • Double click TeaTimer.exe to start it.

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.

    Smile Disabled Teatimer

    Do I need to reboot for the disable/enable of Teatimer to take effect? I am only disabling temporarily so I can download Prevx1R, Zonealarm and a few other freeware spy/malware tools. Thanks again.

    No you don't.
