Download Spybot – Search & Destroy 2.0.8 Beta 6

Safer Networking has released a new beta release of version 2.0 of Spybot Search & Destroy. Spybot is a well-known player in the world of detecting and removing spyware, adware and malware. It can check the computer for the presence of erroneous software, but can also modify browser and system settings, making it more difficult for malware to penetrate the computer. Version 2.0 has not only been given a new look, the software has also become faster and easier to use. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

The sixth beta release of Spybot-S&D 2.0 is ready!

In this Beta we have fixed a lot of trivial and minor issues. As a result we expect Beta 6 to be the predecessor of the first release candidate. We hope you like our fresh user interface cleanup.

Beta 6 features:

• Windows 8 Security Center support
• A modern and cleaned up user interface
• Updated help document and style
• Master Boot Record scans using SDRootAlyzer
• Installer now detects more recent versions of Spybot-S&D
• Added Uninstall Wizard to maintain undo immunization or recovery
• Fixed exceptions when scanning files on a network share

Remember it is a beta and as such not a replacement for the stable version 1.6.2.

Known issues:

• Tests on Windows 8 are not completely finished
• This version does not offer the Live Protection component
• SDChrome has been removed; the web browser extensions will be rewritten using a more flexible concept.
