How to run a full system scan with Spybot-Search and Destroy
  • Download the latest version of Spybot-Search and Destroy from either:
  • Install Spybot. By default it should install into C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy.
  • Run Spybot by clicking on "Start" => "Programs" => "Spybot - Search & Destroy" => "Spybot - Search & Destroy".
  • The first time you run it, allow it to create a backup of your registry when prompted. This will take a few minutes to complete.
  • Click on "Search for Updates".
  • If any updates are found, place a check mark next to each and click on "Download Updates".
  • Click on "Search & Destroy" => "Check for Problems".
  • If any problems are found, select them and click on "Fix Selected Problems."
