    Default error while installing Spybot beta

    Hi,

    I'm trying to install Spybot beta since I am having problems launching Spybot. Now I am having problems installing beta. A message popped up that says

    "An error occured while trying to replace the existing file.
    DeleteFile failed; code 5.
    Access is denied."

    I have clicked "retry" several times, but still get the same message. If I ignore this, will it drastically alter the success of the program?

    Thanks for any help you can provide. Have a great day!

    Natalie
