One more issue: The additional Repair Tool doesn't work. I suppose that the SASREPAIRS.STG file isn't loaded.




Which version of SuperAntiSpyware for Windows 98 using KernelEx?  All versions higher 4,24 or 4.27 need KernelEX to run.

Now a new Version 5.0 is released.

I attempted to install the new version 5 of SAS, but after the download of the .EXE file when I execute a windows message appears saying "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in My Computer by clicking View and then clicking folder options."

Other programs of .exe files open ok, any reason for this? I do have the latest KernelEx enabled.

How to install SuperAntispyware latest version 4.56.0.1000:

KernelEX 4.5.1         WinME

I deleted all my SAS program files in my Win ME SAS folder (C:\Program Files\SUPERAntiSpyware) and after that I copied the new SAS 4.56 files of a Win XP installation to my Win ME SAS folder. Now change the comp. mode of SUPERAntiSpyware.exe to XP. It seems to work fine with the known issues that folderselection for custom scan doesn't work and that SAS can dependent to the system take a few seconds or several minutes to load. It needs 140MB RAM to load and after a definitions update more than 400 MB. 

BTW it scans and detects Firefox cookies.

If you don't have a XP installation, you can install version 4.43. 

1. Run the setup till the error message appears (Install Error:   File copy error, aborting installation.)

2. Before you click OK , you must copy the new SAS progam files (C:\Program Files\SUPERAntiSpyware) and save them to another folder.

3. Restart

4. Copy the files back into the empty SAS folder.

5. Change the comp. mode of SUPERAntiSpyware.exe to XP (start can take several minutes)




The setup of  version 4.37 runs in comp. mode 2K or XP without error.

3. Restart what exactly? as when I click on ok the empty folder in the program files disappears so there is no folder to copy the files back to.

Make a new folder in the program files and name it SUPERAntiSpyware (C:\Program Files\SUPERAntiSpyware).

Maybe I didn't make that clear, I am saying that as soon as I click the OK the folder that will have the files in just deletes automatically.

After attempting as per instructions from schwups I got the message below.

Install Error??   I don't have this massege. Do you run the setup once more? Try only to copy back after restart the 23 (unpacked) files to the SUPERAntiSpyware folder and start one of these .exe files in XP comp. mode:  RUNSAS.EXE or SUPERAntiSpyware.exe


The setup only runs up to version 4.37 in comp. mode XP. 

I didn't really tested Version 5.

I've added SUPERAntiSpyware to KernelEX Wiki. http://kernelex.sour...le_applications

I managed to get 4.37.0.1000 to work on 98 with your instructions, but can I ask, how do I know for sure if it is scanning the Firefox cookies?

I checked the log and it doesn't really help too much.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the right click command for SAS only works when the program is loaded, but the unfortunate thing is when the scan is performed the program automatically closes. This can be annoying in that it takes a good 5 mins or more for the SAS to start up again.

I looked for settings in the program but couldn't see anything related.

Version 4.37.0.1000 doesn't scans Firefox Cookies. See changelog. I told you in post 12 of this topic. http://www.msfn.org/...post__p__948321   I successfully tested  the firefox cookie scan with version 4.43 and 4.56.




Oh, I forgot to mention that the right click command for SAS only works when the program is loaded ...

That's normal!

Yes, I told that the start up time is very different on my test systems.




...but the unfortunate thing is when the scan is performed the program automatically closes.

I can't confirm this, but I will make more scans to check, whether it is possible.

Some things to report.

Managed eventually to download 4, 56, 0, 1000.

Quick scan took just over an hour.

No right click available even though it is checked on preferences.

Some macromedia files that the scan caught disappeared from the vault just after removal, so in other words there were none to restore if I had wanted to, only files in vault were I.E cookies after removal.

FF cookies did scan.

Now I've run many scans (Quick and Complete Scans) on four Win ME machines. There was one crash and all others finished successfully. I tested with versions 4.37, 4.43 and 4.56. 

Note: High CPU usage of SAS during scan: 40 - 99%  

If you like to try or use version 4.56 make sure, that you have copied all 23 files in your program folder and run SUPERAntiSpyware.exe in comp. mode XP. The start up time on my systems is very different.

Systems: Between 1GB and 1,8GB System Memory / CPU: Intel P4 630 and 640; Celeron 440; P4 Northwood 2,6 GHz 

                  Win ME; KernelEX 4.51; RP9.72

It isn't possible to run version 5.0 (tried to run like 4.56). There are a lot of changes between version 4.56 and the new version 5.0.

I get error messages:    "Error Starting Program         The SUPERANTISPYWARE.EXE file is linked to missing export SECUR32.dll:GetUserNameExW."

and

"A device attached to the system is not functioning."

[schwups]

   To update the definitions now I must download and execute the SASDEFINITIONS.EXE installer (www.superantispyware.com). The normal update check doesn't work anymore for version 4 (blocked). I get a wrong message that the database definitions are up to date. If I reinstall SAS, the normal update check works once only. The second update check fails again.
