I have Spybot installed and have had no problems, it always worked great. Then I ran into some serious websites that trashed my system. I could not navigate the problems so I reset windows to a prior restore point.
Now, for whatever reason, Spybot runs fine for everything but doing a scan. I can go in, look around, but when I sheck for problems the program just terminates.
I know I have something going on with the PC because it occasionally does a lot of clicking inside like something is running, and when I disconnect the internet connection from the router its stops. So I have something hiding and running, but I'm not sure what.
So here's what I'm trying to do. I would like to completely take spybot off, and do a reinstall. But the install falls over because the uninstall is not clean. I think that's how I ended up betwix and between with a setup that doesn't scan.
I'm running a resonably new Dell with windows xp professional edition.
How can I take spybot off, and clear out everything so a new install will go clean and get me back to my safe world again.
Be gentle, I'm new on the forum.
