Everytime i immunize, those unprotected parts are fixed but when i run Spybot again, they appear as unprotected again. I had this problem before, but it was because i didn't run Spybot as administrator. BUT in this case, it's of no use. No matter what i do they keep appearing as unprotected.

False positive or just a bug?

Hello,

There seems to be a problem with immunizing FireFox. After FireFox has been opened new, the immunization is gone.

We are aware of this issue and have it already in our bugtracker.

For now you use this workaround:

1. Open Firefox, go to Tools | Options | Privacy | Settings.
There uncheck the checkbox for "Site Preferences".

2. Open Firefox, go to Tools | Clear Recent History... OR press Ctrl+Shift+Del.
There uncheck the checkbox for "Site Preferences".

Best regards
Sandra
