Could this be moved to the tracker forum?

When I double click a PDF file now that SpyBot 1.6.0.31 is installed SpyBot starts checking 2 files such as name.pdf and name.pdf. Then the pdf isn't loading into Adobe Reader. I have to right click and select open with Adobe Reader now.
 
The problem is most likely caused because the right click context menu feature "Scan using Spybot-Search&Destroy" is the first item in the context menu list. The context menu feature is an option during installation which is checked by default. Once installed there is no option within Spybot to uninstall it.

To disable the "Scan using Spybot-Search&Destroy" feature in Spybot 1.6, see this post by Zer0 Voltage in:
If you would like the feature still installed, try disable and then re-enable it and see of that puts the "Scan using Spybot-Search&Destroy" option below the open. If that does not work, try to uninstall and reinstall Spybot. That worked for Un Claudio de la vida in this thread:
