I have been for a while been getting an error "Error while unpacking program, code LP5" while using the update feature on Spyware Doctor. After a bit of research I found this Thread on pc tools forum. Found Here

On page 2 a post tell you how correct this problem.

You login to your account page on Pc tools site Login if you click on Spyware Doctor under My Products column.

On the next page you will see four ticked box's towards the bottom of the screen. If you untick the top one "Behaviour Guard Plugin" and save.

Uninstall Spyware Doctor, please check the install directory is deleted. Restart. Install Spyware Doctor. You will now hopefully find the update feature will now works.

I did this and works for me.

eSpell v2.6.4 (build 573) released!
20/02/2010

This is primarily a maintenance release to fix an issue with spell checking large documents (>30k characters) with lots of custom tags (e.g. Wikipedia pages). The text parsing code was rewritten to make it more robust and a lot quicker too.

I can recommend this program.

Thanks, Noreen.

Has anyone noticed that superanti spyware ALWAYS has a one day only discount price of 9.95? I've been seeing the one day only advert for months now

[Rik]

And it's true, today...

[Glenn]

It's like the high street shop, the one that always has a closing down sale, whenever you go past it.

[Niall]

Maybe they're doing so well off the closing down sales that they don't need to close

[Noreen]

I saw this on American forum, I don't use it myself. Hope that it's not already been posted.
