I downloaded Spysweeper 3.2 Build 146 and ive followed the .nfo file's instructions included with it but i still cannot update it, keeps sayin the supscription is expirered. Heres the instructions.
How to PROPERLY INSTALLED & REGISTERED:
1. Uninstall Your Current SpySweeper:
if you ever made the install.dat file "READ-ONLY" Before, You MUST Uncheck that and the Hidden settings BEFORE UNINSTALLING. So, just Open Windows Explorer, Go to Program Files > Webroot > SpySweeper, right-click on Install.dat and UNCHECK "read-only" and "hidden" then press APPLY AND OK. Then Uninstall By Going to the unins000.exe And CLicking on It Twice. Press OK To Uninstall it And YES or whatever. Reboot ur pc.
2. Install from link above:
when u double click on the link, it will FIRST ASK YOU FOR A SERIAL.
Just Highlight the ENTIRE SERIAL, Copy, Put cursor in First Box and Paste, and the entire serial will be filled in. Then Press OK.
When All of those Options come up, I Only Check Off The LAST ONE Which Is The Windows Messenger Service. That is the ONLY One I check off because SpySweeper has Had Bugs with the Context Menu Option - and plus there's not much need for it.
Then Press Ok, BUT UNCHECK "Run Spysweeper"! DO NOT RUN IT! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. Make Sure SpySweeper is not running, go back to the SpySweeper Folder and right-click on INSTALL.dat and hit Open With and Find NOTEPAD and press OK, so now notepad is opened with a few numbers. Just put a ZERO To This Line:
dl=365
which now will look like:
dl=3650
then SAVE IT and Exit Notepad. Then right-click on install.dat and check the "Read-Only" setting.
Thats it, open the program and YES Now you can update.
