How do I know which version to download? It gave me the option for the newest version (1.5.1.17 Beta), or the older ones (1.5.1.15 and 1.5.1.14)...and also 1.9.0. Any idea which one works better?

The newest final (v1.5.1.15) is buggy. It is veerrrry slow to load and there are immunization issues.
These problems were corrected very well with the Helloween Beta (their spelling) v1.5.1.17 and the Beta2 (v1.5.1.18).
I don't know if v1.5.1.18 is a stand alone install or not...
I do know that it installs right over v1.5.1.15 with no uninstall.
So I highly recommend installing the Beta2 v1.5.1.18 over top of v1.5.1.15.
(But I have no idea what that version 1.9.0 is that you mentioned... I haven't seen that one anywhere.)
Edit: As of yesterday (12/02) v1.5.1.19 was not available yet and it is unclear whether it will be another beta or a final (as per Spybot forums)

In my spare time I am a beta tester for antispyware and antivirus software that comes out all over the world. If you only have one pc, I would recommend that you don't use BETA, because this means the program is still in the testing state and you may ruin your pc, or find yourself with problems that you don't have the knowledge to fix.
Suggest that you use 1.5.1.15 The latest version.
