Hi,
Windows XP Home SP2
768 RAM
Spybot 1.4
Been using Spybot for about 4 years and recently had an infection where
Spybot picked up YazzleSudoku and Smitfraud-C. threats.
I had Spybot fix them and, among other items, they are now in the Recovery area of Spybot.
Problem is when I go to Purge them from Recovery...Spybot simply freezes.
When I go to the Task Manager, it shows Spybot as "Not Responding".
So, I have a few questions:
1) Is there anything I can do to fix the freezing so I can complete the Purge operation?
2) If it requires me to install Spybot again, what happens to those items still in Recovery when I Add/Remove Spybot?
I looked for a "Recovery" file in the Spybot Directory that I thought I could simply delete but couldn't find anything that I thought was related to Recovery.
3) Is it possible that I could do anything to "unleash" these threats back into my system if I download a new Spybot?
4) Is it possible to "install over" the existing Spybot that I have and the new download will copy all the same settings (e.g. the "Ignores") or should I just start over?
Thank you.
