    We saw this a couple of days ago-- it was a glitch. Update Spybot and it will go away.

    The external update application has bin corrupted. Plaese make sure you download the "updated" update to replace it.

    ERROR:
    Can not creat file :
    C\PROGRAMS FILES\SPYBOT-SEARCH_DESTROY\updates\download.ini
    the system can not find specifid path.

    Try this,
    - uninstall it again
    - reboot your computer
    - make sure you are running nothing else and install the new version again.

    ok... here's the deal. i uninstalled, rebooted, went to spybot and downloaded, because when i downloaded from your link i only got 1.3 meg file, when i went to spybot i got a 4.15 meg file. maybe the file is corrupt that i was getting for MajorGeeks. i tryed different locations but kept getting the same error. spybot seems to work well. thanks mark

    We fixed the link now. Thanks!

    It was pointing to an update to 1.3 for fixing the DSO Exploit bug. It was not the full version. Now everything our links are all fixed up.
