I have spybot 1.2 & Lavasoft Adaware 6.0 on my computer. I would like to update to the new Spybot program. I have heard that the new program is experiencing problems. Can anyone add light to this.
Thanks

I find the newer 1.3 to be much better than 1.2...I've run into a few random issues, but nothing to worry about. From what I hear if you have 1.2 on your system, you'll need to uninstall...THEN REBOOT...then install the newer 1.3. Apparently the reboot is critical...now they may have fixed that issue, but I just remember hearing a lot about it when 1.3 first dropped. Good luck!

Thanks for the information.
I forgot to mention what O/S I was running Win98SE.
What O/S are you running Spybot 1.3 on?
