    Not necessarily. But it is recommended.

    Well, what are you referring to? The upgrade via internal updater (Spybot-SD) or the .exe installer?

    I was referring to, when you upgrade how did you upgrade? Via the updater or the .exe downloaded from your browser?

    I installed version 1.6 a couple weeks ago thinking it would go over the previous version. But I just found out that 1.5.2.20 was still showing up in the add-remove programs folder of Vista. So it seems you should uninstall before installing.
