If it was indeed, "false" like you say SpyHunter would have been removed from Spybot's database long ago.

Has the situation changed re SpyBot & SpyHunter?
Have SpyBot made any changes to the software ? It now seems to have altered my HOSTS file to prevent access to the Enigma Website.
Read about WOT's scorecard about Enigma's site in the meantime.

I don't think the situation will change anytime soon.
However, how come SpyBot prevents access to the Enigma website without giving me the option.

Come on, everybody knows that you're working for Enigma
If it now altered your hosts file, you haven't updated Spybot in about half a year, but installed updates from half a year ago now.
How comes that you need to contruct situations that are months old and have long since changed?

Not so. I started using SpyHunter about two/three years ago when having a problem with TrojanVundo. Spybot was reporting it but not clearing it. SpyHunter had the same problem but their tech help gave me a solution. I have had none of the situations others have complained about.
I have been using Spybot for many years now and am very happy with it in all other respects. (Except that teatimer seems to slow down my browsing responses ). The download file I have is Spybot162.exe which I downloaded and installed in Feb 2009.
When trying to update SpyHunter in March I found I couldn't get at the Enigma site.
Are you saying that Spybot no longer changes the HOSTS file? (At all? or just Enigma?). There is a very long list of stuff under the Spybot 'caption'.
Can I delete the whole SpyBot section?

Hello,
So that was february and march then. We have april now, nearly may.
Just search for updates with Spybot!

The Home site indicates that 1.6.2 is the latest version. Should I simply download that version from the website as I uninstalled a few days ago whilst trying to sort out the problem.
Can/should I remove the Spybot entries from the HOSTS file ?
Hello,
I'm not talking about the version.
I am talking about the updates.
You do know how to make updates, do you?
For more information on updating please have a look at this link on our website:
