I constantly get "Spybot has detected an important registry entry that has been changed."

I have no idea most of the time whether to Allow it or Deny it.

Once in awhile there is no option to Deny the change.

Any advice?

If anyone can handle more than one topic at a time...What is Teatimer. No one seems to like it for some reason.

Hello,

Please read this information about TeaTimer:
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/33.html
and http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/34.html
If you surf the web and without any user interaction the teatimer pops up and warns about a registry change it is better to "deny", but if you install something by yourself it is OK to "allow" the change.
The tutorial (point 8) on our homepage should also help explaining:
