Download CCleaner, www.ccleaner.com, and use the Issues feature after
uninstalling Spybot. Make sure you nuke the Spybot folder in Program
Files. THEN reinstall Spybot.

Please submit a sample of kernall32.dll to Virus Total --
http://www.virustotal.com/flash/index_en.html
The submission will then be tested against many different AV vendor's scanners.
That will give you an idea what it is and who recognizes it. In addition, unless told
otherwise, Virus Total will provide the sample to all participating vendors.

You can also submit a suspect, one at a time, via the following email URL...
mailto:scan@virustotal.com?subject=SCAN

When you get the report, please post back the exact results.

The correct version would be 1.5.1.17, it doesn't present a problem on my
pc.
As a matter of fact I like it better than the previous version.
There was a trick to installing it though, but don't remember the details.
Someone in this group suggested it, if I'm not mistaken.
Your error message may have had something to do with your spybot
installation and could have been a fluke, but treating it in accordance with
Dave's instructions is advisable.

I thought you might say that, nellie and I will do anything to recall what
it was and let you know as soon as I come up with it and, hopefully, not
forget to do that. <H>.

Wasn't aware of that, Dave. What's the difference between the two?
And would an upgrade on my part be prudent?
My current version works mighty fine.
I seem to recall there were some who had problems with these updated
versions.

That's the beta version, Dave, as I just discovered.
I had tried and abandoned it.
That makes us even, I suppose <g>.

I downloaded what I was informed to be the latest version based upon high CPU utilization
and extreme software loading latency experienced on Win2K, WinXP and Vista.

If you are working OK, I doubt the slight version difference would be needed in your case.

Nellie, I just checked and I am using the 1.4.0.3 version.....on an XP
machine. Works just fine for me and to be honest, didn't know there was
an updated one, grin.

Especially with WinME, older version of programs seem to work better.
There is a website you should check out for the older stuff. I used it
when I had WinME. It is www.oldversion.com

Good luck.....Heather (and I am NOT updating Spybot.....it's working
just fine.....grin)

Dave,

Version 1.5.2 was released on January 29th. This isn't a beta release.
I don't know if there are any additional tweaks from the 1.5.19 version.
