That would be re-immunize SpyBot after applying the update.

To clarify, Shane, the update URL doesn't point to a ~Beta link, per se.
It is stated clearly that Beta's are for Advanced Users only.
Besides, SpyBot needs to be configured to "see" the ~Beta notifications.
On the contrary, I'm against Beta definitions and do not use then myself.

I'm not sure what exactly occurred. When I saw your original post, my Spybot
didn't detect any updates. Now it does. I tried several servers earlier,
Europe, US, Oz, no updates.

Clearly I didn't read your aumha post closely enough, so apologies for that!

Incidentally, I've been getting a lot of failed updates due to bad checksum,
lately. Change server and it'll work, though often only when getting one
component at a time.

Silj:

You must have made this link previously available, because I have it
downloaded already and keep it, just in case.
Thanks.

Harry.
