Unhappy Spyware Doctor 6 issues
I have just downloaded Spyware Doctor 6 and installed it. There's a few problems though. It hangs in the final initiation stages of the installation, I clocked it at 1 hour, and then when I restart the computer spyware doctor appears on the system tray but never finishes starting. The moment I click something else it freezes.

However, spyware doctor will run and load properly in safe mode.

I used to have spybot but got rid of that before installing. Can anyone suggest whats going on?

Thanks

Hmm, I ran a scan in safe mode, nothing found, then i booted back up into normal mode and it worked with no issues. I've restarted several times since and it still works no problem. Any ideas?

by chance did you have a trial spyware doctor program installed on your computer before you installed the new 6 ?

I did have a trial version on there, but i think it was still in the V6 family. However, I had uninstalled it and removed all traces of it with Regseeker, Tuneup Utilities and CCleaner. At least I thought I did, perhaps I was wrong.
