This update cannot be disabled in the download package below; it is not only
used if you install TeaTimer, but by the main Spybot-S&D scanner as well.
The methods available to detect malware have been more than doubled, including
new ways to generically detect malware mutations.

Aside from the fix of the graphical glitch so many users have been waiting
for, there have been some important changes under the hood, which will reduce
the number of change dialogs where the user has to decide. TeaTimer now
automatically allows any changes during the installation of other security
software which follow the ASCs guideline of code-signing all files, as well as
a much improved scan of the files associated with registry changes.
-
The Windows Security Center included with Windows Vista has a dedicated entry
for malware protection software. Microsoft ships Windows Defender with Vista,
however, Spybot-S&D can now easily integrate into the Vista Security
Center; which will then monitor if Spybot-S&D is up-to-date and whether
the permanent protection (TeaTimer) is running or not. This update will only
show on Vista systems, since previous Windows versions do not offer anti
malware integration into WSC.
