I've had spybot on my computer for a couple years now and it always used to work fine. Recently, I got the little red X in the corner of the taskbar that says I have spyware. I double-clicked Spybot and nothing happens. I tried updating, still nothing happens. Not sure where to go from here. Please help. This little red X is killing me.

For some reason, I cannot get Spybot to open. I tried updating and that didn't work either. Anyone know what would cause this. Please help.
