Deactivation of Rybka -- please clarify. Must I uninstall the whole program to install the update? Or just recent updates? Thanks in advance.

What I did was download the update, then goto add remove programs assuming your using windows and search for fritz11 rybka service pack, if its there then remove it, then run the new update. Job done.
