re: Spybot Thursday, August 21, 2003 at 10:37 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Andrew Benton (258 messages posted) If you initiate the download the firewall should let it pass without a problem. Spybot has a good help/tutorial section. In the folder it makes in your start menu/programs list it gives you the choice to start it in simple or advanced mode. I prefer advanced as it has a tool for looking at and changing the programs that run at startup, the programs that run in the background. I use that all the time. So many programs set themselves to run all the time, taking up RAM and CPU cycles. Thin them out to just the ones you need.
