Disable Alerts from Popping Up SUMMARY: Prevent CounterSpy from nagging you with malware alerts - have it protect your machine silently. CounterSpy may pop up alerts if one of several conditions exists:
* CounterSpy prevents your system configuration from being changed by a software package.
* CounterSpy allows your system configuration to be changed by a known, legitimate piece of software.
* CounterSpy allows your system configuration to be changed by software it thought was malware but you wished it to ignore.

2. Select "View" - "Settings".
3. Click "Alerts".
4. Check or uncheck the various alerts as desired.
5. Click "Save" to save your settings.
