    Default Administrator rights in Windows 7

    I have been using (and donating every year) your software (v 1.6.2.46) in Windows XP without any problems. Now, in Windows 7 64bit, as soon as I click Immunize, I am getting: You are missing Administrator rights... But I have only one user on the machine with Administrator rights. As a result only entries that starts with the user name gets immunizied. Thanks for your help.

    Hello romko91,

    Run as Administrator

    "On Windows Vista and Windows 7, Spybot-S&D might tell you that you are not authorized to perform some actions, since they require Administrator rights. You can solve this problem as follows:

    1. Right-click the Spybot - Search & Destroy entry in your start menu, instead of just left-clicking to start it.
    2. Choose Run as administrator from the context menu.

    Hope that helps.
