I have been using Spybot for any number of years without any problem whatsoever. Recently I installed the newer version and it created all sorts of problems.
1. I wanted to disable the icon in the tray. When I unchecked the relevant check box, the spybot froze.
2. After 2 or 3 days I opened the Spybot for updating and it did something terrible and scary. My desktop shifted a few millimeters downward. As a result, the height my task bar was halved and there was a correponding black strip on top of the desktop.
3. After uninstalling the newer version, I have installed the older version once again.
4. Therefore my request is continue to support the older version till the newer version stabilizes.
