Spybot Crashes
You mean this one? Or the one you just posted? Or the one wondering what was
meant by "start Dr Watson"? (Just joking, mostly. You meant the Dr Watson one, right?) -- Gary S. Terhune MS-MVP Shell/User www.grystmill.com "S1L1Y1" wrote in message ... Ignore this message. Sol "S1L1Y1" wrote in message ... Thank You. Yes this is one of the messages I get. What do you mean by start Dr. Watson? Sol "Nigel Stapley" wrote in message et...

Sol If you get a message saying: "Exception EAccessViolation in module SPYBOTSD.EXE at 002E 6098. Access violation at address 006E 609B in module 'SPYBOTSD.EXE'. Read of address FFFFFFFF." the answer is to start Dr Watsons and *then* run Spybot. -- Regards Nigel Stapley www.thejudge.me.uk reply-to will bounce |

Spybot Crashes
I updated to that version 1.5 ~ when it was recommended and ran it once and
uninstalled it. If I use SpyBot again I will reinstall v.1.4 only. The new v.1.5 requires way to much system resources for win98/95 even though they say it is ok... Is it really any better than the v.1.4 which worked like a charm on win98? "S1L1Y1" wrote in message ... Version 1.5.2.20 "Jim" wrote in message ... Which version of SpyBot S&D?

Please define "system resources" as used in your post. When I run tests
(with NOTHING running in the background except basic Windows,) I get essentially the same numbers. User Resources drop from 99% to 90%. GDI drops from 98% to 45%. Of course, as PCR says, I recommend against using Spybot for anything but static scanning. -- Gary S. Terhune MS-MVP Shell/User http://grystmill.com "Jim" wrote in message ...

It's been awhile; I think I used the resource meter that gives: System,User
and GDI all sucking bottom yellow--red; and System Properties performance tab. I was using SDhelper to silently block and Immunization features on v.1.4 with no problems and probably extended this to v.1.5 ~. I think the program is a bit overweight for win95/98. I still have the restricted zones list active but now use also E.Howes ie-spyad. I run with U.S.CERT "custom" browser settings and have reviewed and used Mike Burgess security settings and Auhuma WSC and your website ideas at the Grystmill. I do have certain online services running in the background like Spysweeper and Avast and ZA FW. I also have some startup items that are enhancements to keyboard and HP systems running in the background. I have taken them down before but as I wrote above the program itself is overweight for this system and trying to be jack-of-all with win xp and vista. "Gary S. Terhune" none wrote in message ...

All I can say is that if Resource Meter is constantly in the yellow, you
have too much crap running in the background. For instance, I would ONLY have Spysweeper and your AV actually running in the background. Or were you remembering an on-demand scanning session when you said the RM dropped to yellow/red? -- Gary S. Terhune MS-MVP Shell/User http://grystmill.com "Jim" wrote in message ...
