whenever I update the definition files and after each update when I try to run the spyware test I get an error message stating "Your Spysweeper installation has been damaged.Please reinstall."Now that I had reinstalled for about 8 times,I am now more concerned about Spysweeper not to show that message again.Please help me.

I use Spysweeper 4.5.7 Build 657

Note: I use Windows XP Professional,Pentium 4 2.8 processor HT,256 MB Ram,80 GB Harddisk,ZoneAlarm Security Suite,AVGAntiVirus.

download the fresh one it might work, or get Spybot Search and Destroy.
