Since Immunize requires Administrator rights under Vista, why does the button not prompt for elevated rights automatically? This would save having to go into the Start menu whenever I want to update the program.

In the meantime, is there any way to set up a shortcut that, when clicked on, will prompt for elevated rights automatically?

Yes,you could rightclick the Spybot shortcut,select Properties,click the Shortcut tab,click the Advanced button,put a checkmark beside Run As Administrator,click OK,then Apply,and OK.That way you'll be prompted for elevated rights automatically whenever you start Spybot using that particular shortcut.

Thanks. I see I can do this to the program file itself, thus forcing the icon in the system tray to prompt for elevated rights automatically.

You're welcome. :)
Yes,you should get the prompt for elevated rights from every shortcut,etc. after setting SpybotSD.exe to run as administrator in Program Files. :)
