Don't use Spybot search and destroy here but I think many do.

Did you know there is a supposedly hidden game within the gui.

Can anyone verify this?

While performing scans with Spybot Search and Destroy 1.4 (and this may also work in later versions as they become available), there is an Easter Egg game you can play. To find it, after starting a scan, click the small binoculars icon next to "Search & Destroy". The goal is to uncover the squares. I'll leave it as an exercise to the reader on how to play and win the game.

In the 70's and 80's games and messages were hidden on vinyl records and were mostly written for the Sinclair spectrum

We got a Sinclair Spectrum for my son sometime back in the stone age, and we lashed out and got the one with the HUGE memory. 48k.
