Download Spybot – Search & Destroy 1.6.0.26 beta

Safer Networking has released the second beta release of Spybot Search & Destroy 1.6 with version number 1.6.0.26. This program is a well-known player in the world of spy, ad and malware detection and removal. In particular, in the first beta release, the time it takes to scan a computer has been drastically reduced. This second beta mainly addresses issues that emerged in the first beta:

Changes: see project tools; for example:

• Need option to disable temp folder cleaning
• Avoid Administrator warning dialog when being non-admin
• Warnings on installing over 1.5.2 version
• Explorer property sheet plugin: option during installation
• Skins not loading in latest beta
• When fixing a huge list of scan results, DelZip179.dll may cause problems

As well as a few bugs (eg in detection in “Download Directories”).

Still outstanding: Firefox 3 support (next beta/RC), possible ~ 400,000 TeaTimer auto-decisions (based on this), and New 1.6 feature “topic two”.[break]
