I get a reading that containes the above information followed by -
WINPUP32 (Ungultiger Datentyp fur) after I run Spybot.
The reading immediately after that says No Threats Found.

So what does the other one mean?? :confused:
 
What version of Spybot are you running (Spybot > Help > About)?

Please post the exact error message you are getting. Look in the Checks.yymmdd-hhmm.log file produced during the scan.

Note: By default here are two Checks.yymmdd-hhmm logs produced during a scan. The second Checks.yymmdd-hhmm has the details of what the scan found. A Fixes.yymmdd-hhmm log is produced if you fix or attempt to fix something.

Two methods to copy that information:
  • Method 1:
    • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced mode > Tools > View Reports > View Pervious reports. Look for the last Checks.yymmdd-hhmm or Fixes.yymmdd-hhmm from when you got the error message. Open it. To copy to the Clipboard > highlight the portion you want to copy (or Right click and select Select All) > Right click > Copy.
  • Method 2
    • The Checks.yymmdd-hhmm and Fixes.yymmdd-hhmm files are stored in the following folders:
      • Windows 95 or 98:
        C:\Windows\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
      • Windows ME:
        C:\Windows\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
      • Windows NT, 2000 or XP:
        C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs
    • Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the correct Checks.yymmdd-hhmm file. Double click on it and it should open with Notepad. To copy to the Clipboard > highlight the portion you want to copy (or Right click and select Select All) > Right click > Copy.
 
That's gonna take me a bit. I'll play around with it and post the results tomorrow.

I'm running Windows XP with Spybot 1.3.

Maybe my McAfee is causing a problem with it? I just upgraded to Internet Security Suite 2006.

We'll see......:rolleyes:
 
Sorry it took me so long to get this done. You know how it goes...
Life is something that happens when you have plans for something else. :p


This is the report I originally had a question about....

This is the report that was generated today.

The error appears whenever I run Spybot.

Is my McAfee Internet Secutiry Suite 2006 causing this somehow?
