skypilotpete Posted November 5, 2006 I recently had a major spyware scare, and started experimenting with running more than one real-time anti-spyware program at a time. I have heard many differing opinions as to whether this is a good idea. The following issue possibly suggests that it is not a good idea! However, I would appreciate your opinions on this, as well as specific help on the following issue. I have just had a conflict between Spybot's resident "Teatimer" and Superantispyware. When Superantispyware was updating, I got a message from Spybot asking whether or not to allow a major registry change. Unfortunately the Spybot dialog box was incorrectly displayed, and there were no buttons visible so I could not allow the change. I have since discovered that this is a known issue, and that I can allow or disallow changes from the keyboard. According to the Spybot log, the following change was disallowed: 5/11/2006 08:54:08 Denied value "!SASWinLogon" (new data: "") added in Winlogon Notifiers! Could someone please let me know if this is going to interfere with SAS operating properly? If so, what can I do to rectify it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatdcuk Posted November 5, 2006 Hi skypilotpete I'm not sure about the operating conflict but i suspect it would cause an issue at one point or another for SAS operation. I vaguely remember reading somewhere about the S&D bug with the alert box's.IRC you can tap the keys a for allow and d for deny when the alert box is generated. LMK if i've remembered correctly /incorrectly:oops: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirJon Posted November 5, 2006 Could someone please let me know if this is going to interfere with SAS operating properly? If so, what can I do to rectify it? Hello skypilotpete, As a former Spybot user, I can safely say that I think you'll find SUPERAntiSpyware to be a superior product in both detection and removal over the Spybot program. You didn't mention if you installed SUPERAntiSpyware Free or Pro, but what I would do is uninstall Spybot completely and keep SUPERAntiSpyware as your main anti-spyware utility. The Free version is an incredible scanner, but the Pro version offers much more protection for your PC at a very reasonable price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The !SASWinLogon is our WinLogon handler which helps remove hard to defeat spyware. I would disable TeaTimer and then re-install SUPERAntiSpyware, you can then re-enable TeaTimer.
