Here is a quick Tip.
For a command-line junkie like me, this is a geeky fun way to scan your system with spybot with CMD, with few easy parameters. For a spyware only version of the scan I used this parameters:
“C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search &
Destroy\SpybotSD.exe” /taskbarhide /autoclose /autocheck /autofix /onlyspyware

For a list of other available parameters, (from Spybot website):
- /taskbarhide
Runs Spybot-S&D completely hidden (no window, no taskbar icon), so make absolutely sure you use it only in combination with /autoclose (otherwise it would remain in memory sitting idle). Useful only in combination with /autocheck, /autoupdate or /autoimmunize, as it cannot be controlled when completely invisible. - /minimized
Starts the window minimized. - /uninstall
Uninstalls Spybot-S&D. This command line parameter is very outdated - unins000.exe should be used instead! - /blinduser
Starts with support for blind users (special menus). - /autoupdate
Does an update after starting the program. - /autocheck
Starts scanning immediately. - /autofix
Fixes problems after scan. - /autoclose
Closes program after it has scanned or updated. - /autoimmunize
Runs the immunization at program start. - /onlyspyware
Fixes only spyware (red) entries with /autofix, leaving all usage tracks as they are. - /easymode
Starts with easier interface for beginners. - /createenglish
Updates the English.sbl language file with the newest texts; useful only for translators.
