    Default When scanning...

    It's worrying me a little, I see all of the spyware names at the bottom.
    Do I have these spywares on my computer actually? ...Oh boy.
    And, I just downloaded Spybot S&D, if I got a virus before, am I still able to delete it? This is scaring me a bunch. :c I'm scared of ruining this computer. It's like my baby now... Dx

    (I can't edit my post, so I'll just post again.)
    I have Doubleclick, and I don't know how to delete it. What do I do?! Thank you so much... I'm freaking out right now and I'm scared half to death.

    EDIT: I think I just fixed it, I pressed 'Fix this problem' and it has a check-mark.
    My computer's running a little faster now. I love Spybot S&D.....:D
    I'm not using Internet Explorer again, it gives me viruses and cookies. >.<
    I chose exactly the first spybot on the list on safer networking. Is it still good? D:

    During the running of a Spybot scan ("Check for problems") the status bar in the lower left hand corner of the screen shows what Spybot-S&D is checking for. When the scan completes the results are displayed.

    The download offered on our home page is the latest 'final' version.

    Spybot-S&D is not an anti virus program. The application searches for spyware, malware, adware, trojans, hijackers and keyloggers.

    Do you have an anti virus program installed?

    Best regards.

    No, not exactly, but I'm going to get avast shortly.
    Thank you so much for helping and making this program... I thought I had gotten hacked a while ago, so I did system restore but I kept thinking "I need Spybot." I used it a while ago when our internet went out.

    The sooner the better. So how did I get infected in the first place?

    You and Windows, a joint effort

    Just so you know system restore will not remove a hacker/infection.
