** No I used Spybot's own UNINSTALL program. The last and 3rd time - LIKE
NOW, the 4th time, the program doesn't even open at all. There's barely a
brief flash on the monitor. As for changing anything in Spybots options or
whatever - we never see the program so sure as heck never had a chance to
change anything. I'll try deleting that file you mention in the other post
since I don't know how to change files using notepad.

Open Help/type: add

** Do I have to look for Spy-Bots "setup" file and delete that too???? How
do I locate it's "setup" file?
