AOL problems w/spybot

[md usa spybot fan]

Truchaos:

Before uninstalling Spybot did you "Undo" the immunization?

If not try reinstalling Spybot without SDHelper and TeaTimer. To do that:

• When you get to the "Select Additional Tasks" screen during the installation, uncheck the following two items:
  
  • Use Internet Explorer protection (SDHelper)
  • Use system settings protection (TeaTimer)

After Spybot is installed:

• Go into Spybot > Immunize.
• Make sure that all immunization catagories in the right hand pane are checked.
• Click the "Undo" button at the top of the right hand pane.
• See if you can access the internet using AOL broadband.
