I have downloaded updates to Spybot S&D and then used the Immunise feature.
I then receive a message saying that I do not have Administrator privilege but I have being updating using my laptop's Administrator account.
My laptop runs Kaspersky Internet Security 11.0.1.400 and I have disabled Kaspersky and run the updates / immunise but still the same problem.
Any suggestions?

Hello Gardener,

"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 might help. :)

Best regards.
