 Post subject: SpyBot TeaTimer Selection/Setting Issues |

Hello there,
I have just switched to SpyBot "Advanced" mode so that I can benefit from the Resident TeaTimer option.
Surprise, surprise ! I started getting popup windows about registry changes being detected with information about the changed value and the entry.
Further down there is a box with a rectangle button to click on that says: "Remember this decision", on its right side a question mark within another small square button that overlaps the last half of the word decision, and further to the right another rectangle button with no indication as to what it is for.
In other words this windows should give me the option to allow or block the registry change by putting a checkmark and clicking on Apply or OK except that all those radio buttons within the window is garbled and overlapping. Nothing happens when I click on anything except it adds a check mark on the left side of "Remember this decision� and if I click the X on the top right corner to close the window SpyBot automatically blocks all registry changes with "Registry denied the change" message.
Some applications need to be allowed but it won't properly give me the option.
Has anybody encountered this issue ?
Thanks.

Has anybody encountered this issue ? Can't be my display, don't have a problem with anything else.
I wish I can paste a screenshot or attach a document with them to better understand.

I have had the same problem when trying to use that function on Spybot S&D, I have even tried reinstalling but to no avail, so my solution was not to use the tea timer and just use S&D for scanning. I downloaded Spyware Terminator, its free, it updates, and has realtime protection and does virtually everything a pay to use program does. You could also try SpywareGuard.

Hi, drumul.
I've never encountered this issue. It might be related to certain bugs in Spybot - Search & Destroy. Unfortunately, I cannot fix the program or provide a workaround.
I suggest visiting the official Spybot - Search & Destroy forums and post this question there. I am pretty sure that someone from Spybot-S&D developers or community will find a way to solve this problem.
Good Luck |
