2. On 64 bit systems, Why I am not able to see the Dlls for certain Processes?

SpyDllRemover is a 32 bit application, Hence does not work well when run on 64 bit Systems. Howerver it provides partial support while running on 64 bit Systems. So it will not be able to display the Dlls and perform certain actions for 64 bit Processes. However it can work well with 32 bit Processes (on 64bit Systems).

Complete support for 64 bit Systems will be added in upcoming versions.
