After you install the Spyware Detector, to enable the full registered version please open the program. Click the "Register Now" button on the right of Spyware Detector's screen to open the Registration screen.

You will now see the Register screen

In registration form, enter your details (First Name, Last Name and E-Mail Address). In the last text box "Registration No" enter your Registration Key in the email sent to you after purchase of Spyware Detector. (Please copy and paste the Registration key to ensure exact data entry, do not try to type it in) and then click on Register button.
For registration of the product, you will have to be connected to the Internet.

I can not register the product

It seems that some program on your PC may be blocking it. If you have Norton Internet Security, please check the following:

Please open NIS (Norton Internet Security) and go to Status & Settings -> Personal Firewall -> Configure -> Custom Level -> Personal Firewall setting. If you have checked the option "High Block everything until you allow it", then you will get "Internet connection failed" error, while registration.

This happens because by default NIS has blocked two application exe's of Spyware Detector.
The two Spyware Detector exe's are:
1. Spywaredetector.exe
2. Live UpdateSD.exe

To fix this error, please go to NIS (Norton Internet Security) -> Status & Settings -> Personal Firewall -> Configure -> Programs -> Click on Add -> Browse to
C:\Program files\spywaredetector\Spywaredetector.exe (C: here denotes the current Operating System). When NIS (Norton Internet Security) prompts the user with Program Control window for appropriate action, listed in combo box, Choose "Permit" and click on OK.

Do the same for C:\Program Files\SpywareDetector\Live UpdateSD.exe also.

If you are doing new installation of Spyware Detector, NIS (Norton Internet Security) prompts its Security Alert with options for what do you want to do? Select "Always allow connections from this program on all ports" and while doing Live Update, if NIS prompts security alert then also select "Always allow connections from this program on all ports".


If you have already blocked the exe's, then make changes as NIS (Norton Internet Security)-> Status & Settings -> Personal Firewall -> Configure -> Programs -> Check for Spyware Detector on Manual Program Control list, if it is present, select Spyware Detector exe names and click on Modify -> change the action to "Permit". Follow same steps for Live Update also.

If you have Windows XP Firewall, please check the following:

Click Start, Control Panel, double–click Network Connections, right-click the desired connection, Properties>Advanced tab, under Internet Connection Firewall, uncheck the option "Protect my Computer and Network by limiting or preventing access to this computer from the internet".

This should help you Register and Live Update Spyware Detector.

Please Note: This is not a limitation on the part of Spyware Detector but Windows Firewall has blocked it, which you need to permit.
