what's the address of spybot?

i've read that there are 'fake' urls out there that pretend to be spybot's site, but the software installs adware etc instead. With some sites having changed the 'donate' button to donate money to a false site instead.

So i'm a little concerned to see two URL's with the same site, both saying "the home of spybot s&d" .

so whats the proper address?

http://www.spybot.info/en/index.html

or

http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html

Both lead to the same forums and download sources, so you can assume both adresses pointing to the same web server.

just be sure to get Spybot Search and Destroy(S&D), which both of your links lead to and all will be well

Visit the site in my sig; you'll see how two addresses can lead to the same site.
