Spybot S&D Tea Timer

Remoc · Aug 31, 2008

Am using Version 1.6.0.31 with Tea Timer.

I know there were issues using Tea Timer several years ago, but with the Latest Version, I find it works Fine.
I've read several posts recommending, NOT to use it, but these were several years old. Is there a security risk while using the TT ??
What is the issue or issues with the TT??
Any Opinions would be Greatly Appreciated.
Thanks, Remoc

Teatimer is not a security risk. The main problems are the below

Teatimer gets in the way of malware removal.

It still can use a lot of system resources as some people still complain of problems with it.

The popups and questions asked by Teatimer can be too much for many novices to properly deal with.

It is better than using no realtime antispyware protection at all, but it is still not something we really like. And if you do get any malware, you may find it more difficult to remove unless you disable Teatimer.

Thanks Chaslang for your response.

I am running A Squared Anti Maleware 3.5 Paid Version with Background Guard.
I'm assuming TT can be Disabled then??
Thanks again for your Advise.
