    Both programs that are installed by sbsdtools15beta.exe are old:
    • advcheck.dll 1.0.2.0 (November 27, 2006 11:09:52 PM)
    • TeaTimer.exe 1.5.0.0 (November 24, 2006 1:30:00 PM)

    Getting an answer is one thing, learning is another.

    Thanks for the info. What's the latest Teatimer version? I'm going to search for it now.

    The latest beta TeaTimer.exe is Version: 1.5.0.6 (February 07, 2007 3:39:06 PM)

    To download and install that ßTeaTimer 1.5:
    • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced mode > Settings > Settings.
    • Page down the option tree until you see a section titled "Web update" (just past half way down).
    • In the "Web update" section check the following option:
      • Display available beta versions.
    • Click Spybot-S&D (left pane).
    • Click Search for Updates (right pane).
    • When the list of available updates appears, check the following item:
      • ßTeaTimer 1.5 - !Resident protection update (1 MB) - 2007-02-14
    • Click Download Updates.

    Thanks for taking the time and for the explanation.
    I started a new thread as I think it might be helpful for a one post Teatimer sticky (that can only be edited by the forum moderator).

    Scanning engine

    This update cannot be disabled in the download package below; it is not only used if you install TeaTimer, but by the main Spybot-S&D scanner as well. The methods available to detect malware have been more than doubled, including new ways to generically detect malware mutations.

    TeaTimer

    Aside from the fix of the graphical glitch so many users have been waiting for, there have been some important changes under the hood, which will reduce the number of change dialogs where the user has to decide.
    TeaTimer now automatically allows any changes during the installation of other security software which follow the ASCs guideline of code-signing all files, as well as a much improved scan of the files associated with registry changes.

    Vista Security Center

    The Windows Security Center included with Windows Vista has a dedicated entry for malware protection software.
    Microsoft ships Windows Defender with Vista, however, Spybot-S&D can now easily integrate into the Vista Security Center; which will then monitor if Spybot-S&D is up-to-date and whether the permanent protection (TeaTimer) is running or not.
    This update will only show on Vista systems, since previous Windows versions do not offer anti malware integration into WSC.

    Download beta versions of above tools here

    Default Thanks

    That TeaTimer update works great, thank you so much! It was almost painful attempting to click those buttons in Vista, especially when it was still in beta.

    Default Problem with TeaTimer, refuses to let me change my screensaver

    TeaTimer won't let me change my screensaver, it keeps asking me for verification over and over again. I really would not like to disable TeaTimer, so any help would be appreciated.
