Spybot Search and Destroy

After reading in here that some had installed Spybot Search and Destroy.
I downloaded and installed it. I did a couple of scans, and all seemed to
run well (it only found several tracking cookies).

But after every time I would run an applet in Control Panel, I would get an
Error Message that explorer.exe had a problem and was shut down. Checking
in Problem Reports and Solutions, I found the problem was caused by
SDhelper.dll. I went to SBandD's Imunize page and disabled the Browser Helper
and all seems to be working fine now -- no more error messages from Control
Panel's applets. I did leave the Imunize function enabled.

Re: Spybot Search and Destroy

When I ran Vista I used this program with sdhelper enabed without problems.
There was never anything about it in problem reports & solutions.
Maybe you got unlucky.
