- To start Spybot, double-click on the desktop icon.
- The first action taken when Spybot runs is to check for updates. If there are new updates, it will download and install them.
- Spybot then checks your system for spywares and adwares.
- After checking and fixing problems it will display the number of problems fixed.
- When the scan is complete, Spybot will display the results. Problems are divided into three categories:
- Red entries indicate spyware. Spyware problems are always selected to be fixed by Spybot.
- Green entries indicate usage trackers. You probably won’t cause any problems by removing these from your system.
- Black entries are system internals.
If there are any problems that cannot be fixed because a program is in use, Spybot will attempt to correct the program automatically the next time the system is rebooted, before the spyware program is started.
