About Spybot 2.03 Beta


Question

Hi,

I stopped using a ton of security software as I was told and discovered for myself most of it is not needed. I did however, at the request of one of their techs, install the new Spybot 2.03 Beta. The installation went great but I found it caused every single web page in IE9 to hang. I found I was forever reloading the browser. Also it never updated it's definitions properly and gave me false and VERY cryptically titled positives on scanning. The horrible part was trying to uninstal it. The uninstal went OK up to the part where it asked me 3 TIMES if I really wanted to do this. Then everything went crazy. The uninstal meter sat there and sat there for 15 minutes them suddenly went zooming to the end and my screen went completely haywire and my system rebooted itself. Then I was unable to reboot. I had to use my Acronis boot disc and reload my last backup. Has anyone else had any experience with this version?

Thanks,

Joe
