Searching here revealed that the items under Mozilla in immunization with the feather icon are related to the Flock browser. I didn't know I had it. I do have Firefox but I can't find the permissions.sqlite file that I've read may be responsible for Flock showing up during immunization.

Should I be concerned that the entries under Flock are not immunized? (those for Firefox, which seem identical, immunize properly). I did uncheck the Flock entries but everytime I immunize it still says the Flock related items are unprotected. Shouldn't unchecking them mean the immunization should ignore them?

No, it just means that you don't want to apply the immunization; Spybot will still tell you whether the immunization has been applied.

So any concern that the Flock items are not immunized? AFAICT it's a browser I don't have or use.

Interestingly on the other account on the computer it did immunize some of the Flock items. I still don't quite get the whole immunization thing but since these Flock items stand out (it does give a big error message) I figured I'd ask.
