kamagatzu:

What type of account are you attempting to activate TeaTimer from (Computer administrator, Limited or Guest account)?

What language do you have Spybot set for?

Does the TeaTimer.exe program start if you do the following?
Using Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy.
Double click TeaTimer.exe to start it.

The easiest solution may be to just uninstall and then reinstall.

Uninstall Spybot-S&D 1.4: Go to Windows > Control panel > Add or Remove Programs > Locate "Spybot – Search & Destroy 1.4" > Remove.
Using Windows explorer, verified that the following folder has been delete. If not, delete it:C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy

Make sure that all the registry entries that Spybot-S&D added during installation are removed, there is a .reg file available on the safer-networking.org WEB site that can do that. See the following article:
