I somewhat doubt it, but try updating so that you are doing the scan with the latest updates (2007-10-04) and see if you get the same detection and then repost the Checks.yymmdd-hhmm.log file.

I believe that you will find that Windows Security Center is not set to start automatically when you boot your system. To check:
Click Start then Run.
Type "Services.msc" (no quotes) in the Open block.
Click OK.
When Services dialog opens, scroll down in the right pane and locate the "Security Center" entry in the list.
Double click on the entry.
The "Startup type" should normally be set to "Automatic" and the "Service status" should normally be "Started".
Do you happen to run Norton?

Yes, I do use Norton Internet Security AntiSpyware Edition 2007. The Windows Security Center is disabled.
That is possibly by choice as I use Norton's firewall. Should I just ignore the Spybot warning?

You actually have several choices as to how to handle the problem, including restoring Windows Security Center functionality. I listed three (3) options near the bottom of post #3 (http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=83603&postcount=3) in the following thread:
