I just went into that submenu and clicked on "Detection Rules" to remove it from the list and now it is greyed out. Is that what you wanted me to do? Does that get it back in the update notification cycle again?

Then I just went into integrated updates and clicked Search for Updates, it offered the same Detection Rules update again, but the same error message appears.
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Do you think I just need to uninstall/reinstall to resolve this?

I don't know what is causing the "HTTP/1.1 200 OK" messages while you are trying to update the Detection rules.
There is a maunal update for the Detection rules. Since you are having problems with the integrated update facility, exit Spybot, then download and execute the manual updater program (spybotsd_includes.exe) from safer-networking.org. That will update the detection files. The file is located here:
- Downloads – Home of Spybot-S&D!
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html
- The download item is:
Detection updates 2006-06-10 - product description
md5: 620EDD81B863E3486F2B94628A768DD7
This updates the detection rules. Only needed if you do not want to use the update function integrated into Spybot-S&D.
- The direct link is:

Thanks MDSBFan. If I do the manual detection download, then I will always have to go get my updates this way? Or do you think it is only just this one time I'll have to update manually?

Decided to just go on and uninstall/reinstall and now my program is updated to the latest 6/10/06 detection rules & running like a new engine. This is such a wonderful program. The entire process sailed to completion like a warm knife through butter! Thank you for you help MDSBFan. And my thanks to the all the Spybot Developers & volunteers for such a great free anti-spyware program and support team.
