PepiMK:
This feature was implemented in Spybot 1.6 by adding immunization for "Secure Domains" in various registry hives. Since the registry keys where that immunization is applied only appears to be applicable to Windows 2003 Servers, it is possible to limit the "Secure Domains" immunization to Windows 2003 Servers only in the next release of Spybot?
For background information, please see:
Immunization count nearly doubled

Microsoft says it's Windows 2003 only; robert was able to reproduce that they're affecting IE on XP as well for example. Will have to ask him whether it was a 64 bit XP (which is more 2003 than XP) or a 32 bit XP...
Ok, received the feedback.
Various entries in this key were encountered (while analyting some Zlob variants) and tested on XP 32 bit with standard IE 7, not just with Windows 2003.
I kind of remember that IE 7 support for this key was also somehow visible in the IE 7 user interface... not absolutely sure how (forgot to ask), but I think it had to do with the https checkbox for domains there somewhere.
