MS Message: System Settings Protector has encounted a problem and needs to close

[maggeye]

Hello,

As you are not getting the error anymore now.... did you change anything in Spybot or your pc?

For all the others:

It would help us if you can do the following:
Rightclick on "my computer" -> "properties".
Choose advanced.
And then "performance".
Under "virtual memory" choose "changed".
Under custom size in the upper field enter a solid value.
Use the same value in the field below it.

Thanks. :-)

Best regards

Hello

If that is directed at me, if you read my post you will see that I am still getting the error.

In my system, virtual memory was customized before this issue...

would be system managed size, that way you let the system manage the virtual memory. I usaully recommend that. But maybe that's just me...

In my cae also, virtual memory was already customized. However, figures in the upper and lower custom size were different. As advised, I changed the lower to the same as the upper one. I clicked 'Apply' and 'OK', and the sytem required to be restarted. It was done but I got the same messge that I was getting previously.
I have been using Spybot S&D for quite some time and did not have this problem till recent updating to 1.0.6.31. I am not a techie but I have a feeling that the error has got something to do with TeaTimer in the latest version. I don't think it is hardware related.
I have more or less the system as most others have, and I must clarify that my software is also Windows XP SP2 (Of course, it is Media Center Edition).
I do hope some one finds an answer to the problem and is kind eonough to advise me also how to get rid of this irriatant.

I have just started my PC and today Spybot and TeaTimer are running normally. No error message. I wouls appear to be an intermittent problem for me.

I made no changes to the system yesterday, and didn't download or delete any programs.

[GA8572]

I have 2Gb RAM, P4 3.0Ghz, Win XP Pro SP3.

I have tired of the problem, and reinstalled SpyBotSD 1.5.2. Since doing so I have not had any further troubles.

For those of you who would like to try the same, you can download older versions of SpyBotSD from here:

Good luck all.

The latest Teatimer is buggy. Use the above (I know, not perfect, but it works) and wait for a newer version which hopefully will not have this problem.

Thanks.

It seems we've been abandoned by the 'experts'.

I have the same problem as everyone else – I am on XP SP2. Its intermittent with me, sometimes works, other times get the error message at startup.

If it fails I have found the only way to start it is to fireup Spybot, go to Tools, Resident – the programme then starts up of its own accord without any error messages.

Am running Skype & Norton.
