Spybot is no good now. It will not allow changes after Yahoo IE7.

What's the "Yahoo Internet Explorer version 7"?
Is it the same as the microsoft IE7?
If it is the same - I have IE7 and Spybot on this computer - no problems.

What version of Spybot do you have? Check you have the latest version.

I uninstalled Yahoo IE after I saw that it did not have Favorites. It may have had it somewhere but I did not like the look of it so I uninstalled it. Guess I should have done a system restore. I have a lot of web pages in Favorites. Favorites is a fast way for me to find a web page I like or go to often. Was version 1.4? Now that it does not work properly I have uninstalled it. I guess that the Yahoo version was designed to navigate you through the Yahoo server. My problem is when I do a change such as tell my firewall to come on at start up Spybot asked to accept it or deny it. I click accept but nothing happens and the command does not work. The Spybot prompt stays on screen.

There are some known problems with the TeaTimer part of Spybot - most people recommend turning that feature off.
You could try that.

Select Advanced in the Mode tab - then Tools/Resident and uncheck the Tea Timer box.

Favorites is the little star over on the left. Granted, it shares that star with History and the new Feeds tab. I agree, the new look IS a little funky, tho.

I finally got the beta so I could do some cross browser checks, every time it loads up it tries to load the "Customize Your Settings" page and comes up with 'Error on page' then fails to load it.

Thanks Microsoft....

Does Firefox have a Favorites like Internet Explorer does?

It has bookmarks - which is the same thing.

Definitely worth getting, especially with the greasemonkey scripts for this site.
