rado354 Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 (edited) xp-AntiSpy 3.96.5MD5: F63037CCADE181814E2FBE2D16F812BEInformation: websiteSize: 0.30 MBDownloadThe xp-AntiSpy is a little utility that lets you disable some built-in update and authentication 'features' in WindowsXP.For example, there's a service running in the background which is called 'Automatic Updates'. I don't know what this service transfers from my machine to other machines on the internet, especially the MS ones. So I play it safe and disable such functions. If you like, you can even disable these functions manually, by going through the System and checking or unchecking some checkboxes. This will take you approximately half an hour. But why wast time when a little neat utility can do the same in 1 minute? This utility was successfully tested by lots of users, and was found to disable all the known 'Suspicious' Functions in WindowsXP. It's customiseable, but comes up with the Default settings, which are recommended.nJoy Edited July 19, 2007 by rado354
ricktendo Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 Thank You rado354 I like it... I have a CPL addon for this but this is nice too
cool400 Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 @radoThanks for this addon!I ask myself if there is a way to NOT install the ebay-link (don't know if it's only in the german version)?I tried to do something with AutoIt, but the checkboxes are not controlable Best regardscool400
mooms Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 (edited) 3.96.8 is out since the beginning of MarchBy the way, you don't have the need to install it; since you only have to launch it one or two times in your installation "lifetime"!just use the zip archive from the official site; if you absolutely want to install it you can make an 7zip or winrar autoexec archive.edit: rado have make an addon for 3.96.8 http://www.winaddons.com/xp-antispy-3968/ but i still think you will not need an "install" for this.....

rado354 Posted March 27, 2008 Author Posted March 27, 2008 (edited) As far as I know there is no switch that disables the ebay link.You can delete it after the installation either manually or by using some script. Edited March 27, 2008 by rado354
cool400 Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 @moomsThanks for your hint - I downloaded the ZIP-file and made an SFX-archive which copies the files to %programfiles%\xp-AntiSpy and also generates the shortcuts the Startmenu/Programs and on the desktop!Very good idea @radoThis solved my "problem" - anyways thanks for you help!Best regardscool400
