Good,glad to hear Internet Explorer (32 bit) SOFTWARE (Domains) immunized.
If you wouldn't mind,please go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains and click on a couple of sites listed below,that look like they would belong to Spybot,and make sure they have a Dword Value of 4.That puts them into the Restricted Zone in Internet Explorer.
Me,too.You had a somewhat more difficult problem to deal with,and you followed along and did everything excellently.Gee, I'm somewhat sad that the problem appears to be solved. I learned some new things, which I always enjoy and I enjoyed our correspondence. Please don't take that the wrong way, I do have a life.
That was in the back of my mind,actually.I'll check with you that the computer seems okay,otherwise,no apparent problems with it?Do you know or suspect how that section of the registry became messed up or corrupted? I assume the problem was the result of a program making changes to the registry, since Karen has never changed the registry directly. We didn't have this problem when using Spybot 1.6. The problem started when we updated to Spybot 2.4 and used 2.4 for the first time. Therefore, could the problem be related to the Spybot update?
Other than that,no,I don't know what could have caused the problem for sure.Perhaps it was a problem with immunization that went unnoticed between Spybot 1.6 and 2.4,perhaps something went wrong,or perhaps it was another program,or maybe it was just one of those things that happen for no known reason,but those are all just guesses on my part.
This is a description of the Creator Owner group,you might have to scroll down a little bit until you see Table 6.3:

The special permissions for Domains is all permissions available(Full Control),but on subkeys only.You can view the permissions if you go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains,rightclick and select Permissions,click the Advanced Tab,then on the Permissions tab click on Creator Owner,then click Edit,and a box will come up showing you the full list of permissions.The checkmarks will likely be greyed out,that's normal.
I'm a volunteer.I'm not 100% sure on the others,but I think most or all of them are volunteers as well.
