spy sweeper 5.0 problems?

Joined: Oct 23, 2006 Posts: 1

All I had the exact same issue and webroot suggested I shutoff key logger shield. This seemed to have resolved the issue.

Also I did not have this issue until I upgraded from NIS 2006 to 2007. The key logger shield works OK with NIS 2006 and Spysweeper 5.0

Question â€“ Has anyone else experienced the issue with NIS 2006 vs 2007?

Question â€“ How do I get key logger protection now? Is this covered by NIS 2007?

thanks

I also encounter endless problems upgrading to ver. 5.0 (build 1286 and 1607). My problem had nothing to do with the keylogger shield, it was the version itself. Other people on other forums suggested AdAware was conflicting with Spy Sweeper, so I tried eliminating AdAware and running a sweep. No change. Spy Sweeper 5.0 still crawled. I reinstalled AdAware and deleted SS 5.0. Then, I downloaded replacement version 4.5.1 (build 731) and installed that. NOW, my system in protected and runs fine. I don't know what additional antispyware software you have, Curious, but I use SUPERantispyware, Spybot S&D, Wehntrust, AdAware, Rootkit Reveler, HijackThis, Icesword, and a few others. I update this regularly to remove any bugs I do encounter. I can't claim to be pest free, but I can tell you what I use.
