Hey, all! Found out that I didn't have spybot installed on my newest machene and installed it. This error popped up, but the program itself seems to have started ok.

Please let me know if I should try to reinstall it or just leave it as it is:

ERROR:

Unable to execute file:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Spybot - Search & Destroy\SDWinSec.exe

CreateProcess failed; code 740
The requested operation requires elevation.

My operating system is Vista.

Thanks!

You might want to uninstall Spybot:

Next,go to the download page:

After you select a mirror,when the download box pops up,choose to save it to somewhere convenient,like your desktop.Next,rightclick the spybotsd160.exefile,and choose Run As Administrator,and follow the prompts to install Spybot.

Please let me know how it goes. :)
