spybot annoying me

Post by hapytravler »

I just downloaded spybot and now everytime I go to sites I get 2 boxes over and over popping up saying spybot s&d has blocked the download of avenue a,inc. or the other one is blocking doubleclick. how can I disable that block? I'm not seeing the options in spywareblaster. It gets annoying surfing ebay or something and having to constantly click and close the box.

this is my first time here...so be gentle!

thanks,
paula

Go into Spybot's Immunization area and tell it to block these items without warning you.

I've gone into spybots protection stuff....disabled all doubleclick and avenue a things...and put the doubleclick ads in my ignore list. so. I go to ebay and always have to click and close down 6 repetitive boxes of "doubleclick" boxes that spybot has detected. what am I doing wrong????

Under imunize the last heading about browsers on the bottom of the page click on the little arrow & make "block all pages silently" appear in the window. :dosgonebad:

:rolleyes:

LOL

When you open Spybot theres 2 panels.

Its' in the left panel-under 'spybot' heading-third item down.

If your really adventureous you can go up on top click on 'mode' & change it to advanced which will really screw you up. :P

Richard,
Thank you for that. I'm thinking I dont have spybot afterall? My stuff says spywareblaster. I do not have those options that you told me to go to. Even though when I get my warning boxes about double click being stopped it says spybot search and destroy.
I think I'm just searching and destroying my lackluster logical side of my brain. How embarrassing.
thanks anyway.
paula

okay richard, thanks for your reply. i do have it. I"ll take care of it now. but I"m wondering, do I need spyblaster and spybot and adaware? I know for sure the day I downloaded spybot that is all I did, yet ended up with spyblaster as well.

thanks

Yes, you want all of them. Spyblaster immunizes more spyware than Spybot does, and Adaware catches some of the spyware that spybot misses and spybot cathes some of the spyware that Adaware misses. :)
