Hi There. I'm trying to figure out why the one computer I installed Spybot on is not finishing the scan because it wants to be payed. I'm sure Spybot is free and all, but I am confused as to why it wants money to complete a scan. Does anybody have any advice as how to stop this? On the other computer I ran it on, it came up with over 7,000 items, which I know is bad, but how can I stop it from asking me to pay? Any advice would help. Thanks!

The official Spybot is download from the mirrors in that link.
First, remove ALL traces of the "rogue" Spybot from your computer. Can you see it from the ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS window?
Edit:
Spybot is free for personal and home use.
The 7,000 detected entries?! That's ridiculous. Those were "false positives". Ignore them for now.
First tell me how it goes.
