I tried searching for this error but for some reason the forum just returns a blank screen so.....I'm receiving an error on install. I'm trying to install the latest version on a new laptop running Vista. The error message is:

Unable to execute file
C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search and Destroy

CreateProcess failed; code 740.
The requested operation requires elevation.

Search and Destroy still runs, detects items and seems to work okay. Anyone know about this error and if I need to do anything?

Thanks!

Try to reinstall Spybot by running it as Administrator. To run as administrator, right-click on a executable and select "Run as Administrator.)

Search forums for "CreateProcess code" (no quotes) and you will find some threads and users which have this problem.
