Spbyot - You are missing administrator rights
After installing
Spybot
Search & Destroy 1.6.2 through
allmyapps, I started Spybot and attempted to peform an immunization,
but saw the following error, even though I was logged into an account
in the administrator group when I started Spybot.
Error
You are missing administrator rights to perform this action.
If you need to do this, please run this application
elevated as an administrtor.
When I started Spybot by right-clicking on its shortcut and choosing
"Run as administrator", the immunization performed successfully.

Fixing TeaTimer Window Problem with Resource Hacker
On several systems where I've installed
Spybot - Search
& Destroy 1.4, I've encountered problems with the
popup windows that appear when I've activated TeaTimer,
a Spybot application that monitors attempts to change
the registry. The buttons on the warning window that
appears won't have the correct description of their
function written on them, so it is hard to determine
what will happen when you click on a particular button.
The problem can be fixed with
Resource
Hacker.

Windows Security Center.AntiVirusOverride
If you run
Spybot Search &
Destroy 1.4 and find that it detects
Windows Security
Center.AntiVirusOverride
, that is not necessarily anything to
worry about and, in fact, you may want to deselect this item as one
that Spybot will "fix".
