   Hi
   
   is it better to run programs like SUPERAntiSpyware/SpyBot/Malwarebytes in safe mode ? e.g: will they catch more "bad guys" if I run them in safe mode ?
   
   it doesn't say that here, or did I miss it ?
   
   same question about anti virus programs - should I try to run scans in safe mode ?
   
   
   thanks
   Linda

   No...you should try to run them all in normal mode.....we only tell you to run them in safe mode if you can not do them in normal mode.
