I am trying to automate Spybot 1.3 to run automatically but cannot get
the commandline parameters to do what they state they do. I basically
schedule the spybotsd.exe /autoupdate /autocheck /autoclose /autofix
/autosilent /nocancel but I can't get it to automatically close. I
schedule the job as "Local administrator" and it runs but when it is
finished it keeps coming up with a confirmation box and I need to hit
OK. If I run the same scheduled task logged into the Domain as
another user none of the dialogs pop up as they do when I am logged in
as Local Administrator and the most frustrating thing is that the
process just runs forever and never ends! (The domain user I login as
has been added to the local admin group).
What I'm basically trying to accomplish is to create an image on a pc
that I'm going to roll out to 40 different domain users with spybot
already configured to run, update, and close automatically without the
user having to ever interact with it. Is anyone having the same
problem as me or more importantly can anyone offer a suggestion as to
why this isn't working correctly. Thanks a lot in advance.

Wouldn't this be a question for Spybot 1.3 support?
