    Default Spybot Anti-beacon Error

    I have purchased this software license and for some reason out of blue i started to get this error:

    Small popup comes up when i try to open the software and Title of it says Spybot Anti-Beacon
    and with a RED X on side and beside it says:

    Access Violation
    Press OK to ignore and risk data corruption.
    Press Abort to kill the program.

    Ok or Abort


    when i press OK the software opens but everything is weird and doesnt work properly and if i abort it just doesnt open the app.

    See attachment please, thanks

    I'm sorry about this issue, definitively shouldn't happen!

    Does this happen when you open the software, or when you click "Settings" (just asking because the screenshot looks like an incomplete Settings view)?

    Are you using the latest (3.4)?

    Default Same here - Just started today

    I get the warning at autostart and when trying to manually start: If I click OK, I don't even get that much of a screen: only "you have the latest version" and nothing below: Using paid for Spybot Anti Beacon Plus.
    Have tried uninstalling/reinstalling and rebooting once uninstalled (for cleanup) & then reinstalling as admin...
