There was a update of Spy Sweeper

I tried to install 4.0 the same way as 3.5, but it didnt install.

Any one who has 4.0 installed??

Are you referring to Webroot Spy sweeper V4.0.1.323? Its still beta. So maybe "Final" will install OK as before. Webroot Spy Sweeper v3.5.0 Build 199 is still the official LATEST final version.

Webroot Spy sweeper

N.B. Some people also reporting virus warnings when installing V4.0.1.323 and also some people can only install it in Safe Mode. Not beta??

It does not say its BETA



When they have an update i receive an e-mail.
I get one last week , in the mail they also didnt mentioned BETA
So what u say is not true , sorry.

Still beta according to BETANEWS May 9th and no update since on their site.

http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Spy_S...er/1047914996/1

last i've seen is the beta version, i tried running switches w/ it but just might have to wait on the final for that..........

I bought Spy Sweeper, and i receive emails about them including updates
So nice site you gave us , but i have to dissapoint you.
Its no BETA


read again m8

Why is the site called BETAnews?

P.S. There's a clue in the name.

And they continue to update releases until it goes final and then it will say so. The software manufacturers USE BETAnews as a platform for their products and to get info to the marketplace. When it goes final they'll report it and issue the version number.

EDIT Not beta? Just gone to V4.0.1 Build 323 to 331 now within 24hrs. (17 May/1300hrsGMT/UK)

Hmmmmmm...

whatever........

i believe webroot, and not a geek beta site...

but since you dont have a clue what you talking about, maybe someone else knows how to solve this problem

Before this breaks out into an all-out flame war, here's what I noticed:

If you already have Spy Sweeper 3.5 installed, and click the "Update Program" button under Options, the Web site tells you that you have the most current version installed.

BUT...

If you go to Webroot's web site, click on "Re-Download Purchased Software", and enter your information, it sends you a link for 4.0. The installation is for 4.0.1 Build 331. The new download is about 6 MB, twice as large as the size of 3.5.

If you right-click the executable, under Properties -> Version -> Comments it says the executable's built using Inno Setup, but I also couldn't get any of the usual Inno Setup switches to work.

Also, based on the way the program looks and feels, I'd say it's still a beta. Graphics are not as advanced as in 3.5. Memory scan takes a long time, but scans of the hard drive hardly take any time at all, so overall scan time is down. If you're concerned about being exposed to spyware, you may want to continue to run 3.5, since it's the tried and true. If your system is somewhat safe, and behind a firewall, and you don't participate in the "click the monkey and you win a prize!" crap, go ahead and give 4.0 a try.

like i said, they sended me an e-mail with update, they never send me betas


and when i try to install, it says its damaged, please reinstall, on all machines.

time to break out installrite or autoit.............

HI,

Here my contribution.
1) I build a AutoIt installer here enclosed. Tested Working.
Before running it, please enter yr registration code in line 5

Moreover, I added a command this will uncheck the "Run Spy Sweeper Now". Therefore, "taskkill /F /IM SpySweeper.exe[/code]" is not more needed

Enjoy

Cool...

But 1 thing, it stops at : register spy sweeper now?

I changed that, now it works.

THX for your help coucou

(enclosed the right file)

Yeah!!!
I had "register spy sweeper now" too and i deleted it because it doesn't detected.
I think it detected in the first install.

As I had to install many times for testing and building the AutoIt installer, the "register spy sweeper now" wasn't anymore dectected and the install stoped.

Anyway... Good Job

coucou

we solved the problem....

but now...how make this silent?????

And how about the prefs ?
So that i dont have to click anything when entering windows for the first?

i tried to overwrite a few sfx things like :
the Application Data folder
And the reg files





But it doest work

Now gone to build 4.0.2.349...3 builds within 7 days - not beta tho'...
I trust you all got emails about the new version????????

Hmmmm

Here the new SIPMLE way to silent install this staf,

SpySweeperSetup_EN.exe /VERYSILENT /KC=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
when XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX is yr serial number

Tested Working
Enjoy

@coucou URRR GOOOOD

I didnt like autoit anyways



Like this??

Another build, lads, hope you're keeping up with all these "final" releases.
Build 4.0.2.352
https://secure.webroot.com/register/softwar...ates.asp?rc=805

thx DLF

But your link points to 3.2.0.146

SS has been updated to 4.0.4.430

I'm trying to install it (/VERYSILENT /SP-) and it brings up a prompt asking if I'd want to download and install new updates. It then opens a browser window.

I went through with innounp 0.16 and it looks like the install script generated is incomplete. It won't recompile cleanly at all. I went through most of the error messages and removed parts from the script to make it work, but now it errors on compilation here (from install_script.iss):



It doesn't like the AfterInstall part...RunServiceInstall is not defined. At this point, I'd have to rewrite that bit in order to get it working. Anybody know how I could better unpack the installer, so it's not losing these pieces? I don't want to resort to AutoIT if I don't have to.

I think better you uninstall and reinstall it with the appropriate switches (see here above) when XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX is yr serial number

I installed it many time updates included very smoothly with the above switches.

I don't have a key code; I'm just installing the trial version. I don't see how adding the /KC switch is going to change anything, and I'm already using /VERYSILENT.

Trial Download Link

It does install near-silently when I'm using /VERYSILENT /SP- (i.e. it doesn't prompt me for most of the install tasks), but it prompts to check if I want to update the defs before install, and then it brings up a browser window.

I think that it's because of new functionality Webroot has created for the newer versions.

Then Sorry, I can't help you
