What IS the operating system? RIGHT click on "My Computer" choose "Properties". (Or simply restart the machine and watch the spash screen for the version of Windows that's loading.
Next, after opening Spybot, click on the "Search For Updates" button, then when the downloads section appears, you'll notice a download "mirror" displayed in a little button at the top. Click on the drop down arrow and choose "F/X Clips USA", then click on the "Download Updates".
Hope this helps.

First, Ive had a problem with a page thats been popping up as a home page, insead of Google.com. Changing it at Tools > Internet options > privacy > edit does not help. I did block the address (search-click.com) from coming up. After blocking it, I get an HTTP 404 error saying "The page cannot be found", instead, so its still looking for Searchclick.com. Ive so far run SpyBot - Search and Destroy 1.2. There were 8162 files checked. I wondered if I needed an update, so I also clicked Online > Search for updates. At first, it gave me three checked items, but when I clicked "download updates", nothing happened, and I had to try to close it. I finally had to force windows to close because it was frozen. I decided to come to the Cnet board to ask about that when I saw a note suggesting the use of QuickReg. I downloaded it and didnt immediately see how to 'turn it on', but did find the something called "using QuickReg" and clicked on it. I got an error message saying Quick Reg has caused an error in <unknown> Quickreg will now close. If you continue to have problems, try restarting your computer." So, I attempted to close, but with difficulty. The error box would not go away and Windows wouldnt close. I finally hit control-alt-del to close everything individually, but got another message in blue saying windows had been improperly closed.
I believe the OS is WinMe, though my girlfriend says it might be Win 2000. Thanks.
