    Default Compatibility Spybot free version 2.2.25 with Windows 8.1 64 bits

    Windows 8.1 64 bits
    Chrome browser

    Would you pls help with this?

    I downloaded Spybot free version 2.2.25 from this forum and on the desk top of my pc, I ran the windows compatibility tool.
    it showed the following message : "run time error 217 at line 304BED64"

    I have very strict settings in all browsers & control panel: for java, scripts, IFRAMEs, pop-ups, notify all system changes etc

    Can this be the reason?
    Can I run spybot inspite of this message?

    What should I do?

    Thanks,

    Default Sdwelcome.exe incompatible with windows 8.1 64 bits

    I reduced the settings of Spybot to very minimalistic ones, tried the windows compatibility tool again, and now it reads that Sdwelcome.exe is incompatible (with windows 8.1 64 bits).

    Spybot remains updated on my pc, plenty of registry keys were created, but I still do not dare to really launch a scan.

    It is safe to do so inspite of the incompatibility warning?, something can be done about the Sdwelcome.exe file?

    Or I just wait for a new version?, mine is 2.2.25.

    Many thanks
