Hello again,

Sorry, this is probably a foolish question, but I have searched and not found a very clear answer, so I will ask: When I go to fix problems that Spybot has found, it tells me that I cannot delete them as I am not an administrator, or something along these lines. This happens more often than not with fixing infected files. May I ask what the proper course of action is?

Thank you very much, sorry for my lack of knowledge!

Hello arashi,

Right-click the Spybot - Search & Destroy entry in your start menu, instead of just left-clicking to start it.

Then, choose "Run as administrator" from the context menu.

You will find a screen shot here: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/42.html

Hope that helps. :)

VERY helpful, thank you very much. I probably could have found this on my own, I should look harder next time! Thank you very much though.
