Spybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.

Same as the last one, its just the executable, dump it in the programs directory overwriting the exsisting one ore you can rename the exe first.

Are you sure this download comes from Spybot S & D ? It has completely messed up Spybot so that I cannot use it. It looks more like a Trojan intended to mess up security on the computer, rather than help it. If this actually comes from Spybot, somebody there has really messed up
