I'm now having one reoccuring problem, and one new one.

1) I am being told that I am not the administrator, so Spybot won't fix a number of problems it found. (I was told previously to access Spybot through my start menu, and that worked for a while...now the message is coming back again).

2) Spybot will not allow me to fully immunize....message says I may have Zone Alarm or another software, which I don't have, that might be causing this.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Hello,

To immunize you also need admin rights.

Windows Vista / Windows 7 / Windows 8 might tell you that you are not being allowed to operate at the administration level of your computer.
You can solve this problem as follows:
Just right-click on the module’s icon you are about to run and select “Run as administrator”
You will find a screenshot of this problem (http://www.safer-networking.org/faq/how-can-i-get-administrator-rights-under-windows-vista7/) in our FAQ.
