Re: Anyone get Spy Sweeper to run with Vista?

http://support.webroot.com/ics/suppo...asp?deptID=776
Above is the URL for submitting a ticket to Webroot/SpySweeper. They DO have
a beta version out, which I am currently using. It is SpySweeper with
anti-virus included. I have it on my XP Pro partition, and will be installing
it on my Vista partition to try in a few days. I use SpySweeper and Windows
Washer both from Webroot and have tested a few betas of theirs. I am very
pleased with their products.

Go to the "Submit a ticket" Webroot page (above), and ask them about the
beta version and Vista. They have always been EXCELLENT with me as far as
support issues. Also, I have disabled Windows Defender because of the
blocking it does. I have consequently been able to run AVG, Avast, A-Squared,
Autoruns, WinPatrol, etc. sucessfully on Vista. I would really like to
utilize Windows Defender as well, but it will not permit user input even with
an enabled Administrator account on my Vista.

Good luck.
