"Bad Checksum" problems are usually caused by overloaded download servers.
To change download servers and for a workaround for "Bad Checksum" errors please see:

Note: The download server can be changed after the "Search for Updates" and before clicking "Download Updates". So if you find a server that works well, you can start by using that server in the future. Also note that if you want (not necessarily recommended) you can select a server and then right click on the button and "Set this server as the preferred download location". If you do that Spybot will select that sever rather than a random server for future updates.

- When updating, why do I get an error message that the "update is forbidden" / "bad checksum!!!"?

You're welcome.
I hope that your system turns up clean and that you won't need any more help, but if you do, just holler.

Thx for the heads up on how to deal "bad check sum"!!! I have not had it, however my colleague has had it since the latest D/L.
How do we know what sight we are linked to for updates? I have been using S&D for over 2 years now and this probably is a silly question, however I thought that I would ask anyway.
I look forward to comments from the experienced users here.

After the initial update control file (spybotsd.ini) is downloaded the site appears in the site selection list between the "Check for Updates" and the "Download Updates" button. See the thumbnail in this post:Siouxcity said:
