ok I got a question and need some help in figuring this out. The last couple times that I have ran spybot I have had something called a "Coupon Bar" shows up with 7 entries of Adware. Everytime I try to delete this is says that I am not allowed to as I am not an administrator and therefore will not allow me to delete these 7 entries. Anyone got any ideas or had this happen to them? How do I get rid of this dang thing? Thanks all!

Hello DarkKnight79,

No operating system was given but please see if this fixes the issue.


"On Windows Vista and Windows 7, Spybot-S&D might tell you that you are not authorized to perform some actions, since they require Administrator rights. You can solve this problem as follows:

1. Right-click the Spybot - Search & Destroy entry in your start menu, instead of just left-clicking to start it.
2. Choose Run as administrator from the context menu."From our FAQ here: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/42.html

There is also a screen shot which should help. :)

Best regards.
