If your running Spybot S&D's resident shield, then you might notice annoying popup's from it when you boot your computer saying "registry to *blah blah blah* has been allowed or denied. I wrote a simple little program which deletes those snapshots and I believe keeps your registry changes.

Turing:

var drive : string := Dir.Current
drive := drive (1)
const directory : string := drive + ":\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Application Data\\Spybot - Search & Destroy\\Snapshots\\"
var stream : int := Dir.Open (directory)
var file : string := " "
for i : 0 .. stream
    exit when file = ""
    file := Dir.Get (stream)
    put file
    File.Delete (directory + file)
end for

I dont have spybot, but judging from your code this looks like a pretty smart program to make for people who are frustrated with the registration stuff, Good Job.
