Should I reinstall Immunet? Of course, you can reinstall Immunet! You will then be informed, that an uninstallation must be done first! Then you get a question, if you want to keep your data (logs, settings & quarantine) Yes or No? If you select "No", you have to redo the settings again (but is an easy task). Immunet will ask you to reboot. If you have members in your community, they will never got lost, unless you change your official login email address to Immunet.

badboygonegood Posted June 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Thank you sweidre. I know I can reinstall Immunet.I'm merely asking if Immunet registers itself as a antispyware application in windows security center.I can see it registers itself as an antivirus application only in my WSC. Hence my question: is this a proper behaviour, Immunet was designed that way or something went wrong in my case? I've activated my Plus license and it's exactly the same.

Hi badboygonegood, I am sorry, that I cannot reply to your antispyware issue! Immunet is regarded as an AV for sure, but if it also acts as an AntiSpyware application, I hope Immunet staff administrators (RobT, Anthony, or Millard) can reply to during weekdays 9-5 US Mountain Time! Another issue is, if WSC will accept Immunet as an antispyware! Personally, I have in addition to Immunet Free: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Pro & SuperAntiSpyware Pro both as guards online! Of these two softwares, I am in particular satisfied with Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Pro. Cheers, sweidre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob.T Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Hi badboygonegood, the answer to your question is no, Immuent does not register itself as an anti-spyware program in windows security center. Although Immunet does provide spyware protection as it will quarantine spyware before it can be installed (and in many cases after it is installed as well). I'm not sure what the exact distinction is, but I believe the security product has to be able to *uninstall* spyware to qualify as an antispyware product, rather than just quarantine it.
