When I read the tutorial you supplied, I found that I must have missed several of the options which your tutorial emaphsized. On my last computer, a friend installed S&D but I did installed it on my new computer. How can I go back and re do the installation and selection of options. Should I just uninstall it? When I ran it. I came up with 80 RED MARKS - 3 MAJOR RED MARKS AND THEN ALL OF THE REST CAME IN AS SUBTITLED TO THE 3 MAJOR RED MARKS. On last computer I NEVER CAME IN WITH ONE VIRUS,,, NEVER. All of a sudden with my own installation, I have 80. Of course I deleted all red marks. How can I redo installation and configuration of SpyBot. Thank you, missfilippa

Then you can re-install it with the desired options. -------------------- Soltek QBIC, Pentium 4 3.0GHz, 512MB RAM, 200GB SATA HDD, ATI Radeon 9600XT 256MB, Netgear 54Mb/s WAP, ridiculously expensive Satellite Broadband Windows XP Home SP2, Trend Micro Internet Security, Firefox, Thunderbird, AdAwareSE, Spybot S&D, SpywareBlaster, A-squared Free, Ewido Security Suite.

You might be able to set them without a reinstall. -------------------- I love being married. It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy, for the rest of your life.
