    The release announcement says "Remember it is a beta and as such not a replacement for the stable version 1.6.2."

    What does this mean in practice? Will v1.6.2 run along side the v2 beta? Do I need to uninstall v1.6.2 before installing the beta? Does the v2 beta provide less protection than v1.6.2?

    I think it won't run alongside, as it could make problems. It should be completely replaced, and that's why it's not for replacement if you get problems later.

    In practice, that means that bugs still remaining in such a beta could make it less protecting than a stable version like 1.6.2.

    As for using them both, if the TeaTimer is disabled, I don't see any conflicts. I think not even with TeaTimer, but would have to check that with our test coordinator tomorrow.

    I have a problem with the 2.0 BETA 1;

    After installing, I get a 0x50 bluescreen within one minute of rebooting.

    I repeated this four times.

    I uninstalled 2.0 BETA 1, and no bluescreen.

    Any ideas?

    Also, perhaps sticky this thread?

    And why can I NOT edit my replies? Please fix that.

    Memory Leaking at ending of scan. I still wonder what the hell is doing at ending of it?

    Additionally,


    Icons are messed up again, While protection does not allow to scan files in its own folder. I guess it's safe enough, but it doesn't modify or delete...



    Immunization on Firefox is still really slow, isn't possible to make it faster or show real-time immunizing? Additionally, it gets messed up with numbers. Estimated time is not defined (keeps staying at calculating...).


    In creation of report, once again you can't click Immunization in log mode.

    Services module misidentified as Welcome center:



    Additionally, Spybot doesn't show warning about downloading some malicious file, it just closes IE, on confirmation mode.
