I have been using Vista for a little while now with SpyBot with no issues. When I downloaded the latest version 1.5 I had to set the properties for it to run as an Administrator (don't remember having to do this before) and it seems like it takes forever for the program to start up. Also on my daughter's computer when I immunize there is always 19 left unprotected (and she is an administrator). Anyone else having these issues or have suggestions on what I can try?

Spybot S&D will need to run as Administrator if you need to change some settings, like Immunize and disable Teatimer. Vista administrator by default, isn't really an administrator.

You could just right click on Spybot S&D and select Run as administrator.

As for the unprotected items, I have no issues with that though.
