Easy Transfer Error Message

I just found out that a small spyware blocker called "Spybot & Destroy" which
I had downloaded long ago absolutely BLOCKS migration using Easy Transfer and
the Belkin cable. When I uninstalled the Spybot S & D program, all went
well. It took me five attempts to find this out, though -- and the
'prescreener' at the Microsoft site did NOT identify the program as a
potential problem.

When you clean up the registry, you'll see what an invasive POS it is.
