    Okay, so I, on a whim, decided to try Joost. I downloaded and installed it, but when I tried to run it a incompatibility dialog box comes up.

    Looking online, I found that others had the same issue but with different Anti-Virus software.

    Just wondering if anyone here has had issues with Joost and Spyware Doctor?

    Yeah, I updated Spyware Doctor (I might uninstall it though) and yes, I did use Snipping Tool for the image, it really comes in handy. :)

    The one I just downloaded a few days ago wasn't the latest :confused:

    Anyway, is there an updater within the program?
