After installing Update 21/2/07 I got the following message during the first scan.

Error during check!: Virtual Bouncer [4] (Access violation at address 005A751C in module 'SpybotSD.exe'. Read of address 05E03FFF) ()

The only item reported in the scan was a cookie

Windows XP SP2 fully updated, Kaspersky AV, Superantispyware Pro, Spywareblaster, Windows XP firewall, Spybot, Adaware.

Hello,

My take on the error is that it is some sort of transient error that occurs periodically during the scan for Virtual Bouncer related Malware/Trojans.
There have been documented reports of this error going back to early December 2005.

Although the error may terminate the scan for the particular Virtual Bouncer signature that Spybot - Search & Destroy was scanning for (pure speculation),
there are reported cases that indicate that the scan continues because other problems (detections) have been reported after the error.

Until the cause of the error is determined and corrected by "Team Spybot", I suggest that if you get this error during a scan:

Just ignore the scan results.
Exit Spybot - Search & Destroy.
Restart Spybot - Search & Destroy.
And run another scan.

References that I found with the error (including this one):
