SpyBot Beta Updates

[siljaline]

Just an FYI - the Beta updates can and will show false-positives!
If you don't want to be hassled with this annoyance - set SpyBot not
to check for Beta includes updates.

Was a good idea at the time, Jeff The false-positives issues seem to have
been cleared up, I hope. I'm still using them - FWIW...

I'm still using them too Silj, I was just teasin' ya! Still somewhat
curious as to what those keys actually were, but haven't made time to look.
I just restored them.

Would you kindly turn Quoted Printable OFF? Your posts are something of a
mess (see above for one of the lesser examples).

Thank you.

That's just a function of the inadequate newsreader that you are using.

I'm using the same newsreader as Blocksom (Forte Agent 1.93/32.576), and
it's handling Quoted Printable just fine. I think he has mangled his
options.

If you could give me a specific example of what "options" you think I've
"mangled", I'd be happy to re-examine that. In the meantime, I suspect you
need to hit Ctrl-R to see what "siljaline" is *really* posting.

I don't need to examine Silja's messages in raw mode; Agent displays and
quotes them correctly. Maybe the problem is that you are replying to his
messages while you are in raw mode.
