| I recently upgraded Spybot S&D from 1.4 to 1.5.2, as prompted when I did a
| "Search for Updates" within v. 1.4
|
| I kept the v. 1.4 files in
| Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy
| and installed v. 1.5.2 in
| Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy 1_5_2
| using the option in the install wizard.
|
| Now, every time I start the computer, the Spybot directory opens on my
| desktop -- the original, not 1_5_2.
|
| (A) is this an indication of an actual problem? or just a nuisance.
|
| (B) I can't figure out where this is happening -- any idea how to get rid of
| the nuisance factor? It's been a while since I messed with my startup.
|
| Possible additional factor -- The original installation of 1.5.2 placed the
| install .exe file on my desktop (and changed my original shortcut icon from
| 1.4 to 1.5.2). I mistakently assumed that the new desktop icon was the new
| Spybot, and re-installed it once or twice before figuring this out :-).
|
Remove BOTH versions. Reinstall ONLY v1.5.2
