I just installed SpyBot. After scanning my computer, it said it found 43 problems. I said, "Fix all". It ran then said, "Can't fix 2 - will fix at re-boot time". I said, "fine". Then it displays a dialog box - something about trapping an update to the registry - with 4 buttons - the first and the fourth button only displayed the top third of the button and the button text was unreadable. The second button was a "?" and the third said "Quit" (if I remember correctly - these buttons were fully displayed). I wanted to say, "OK, change my registry to fix these errors at next startup", but I didn't know which button to push (couldn't read them). So I closed the dialog box and it said, "Registry update denied". So I guess I still have two problems. :spider:
Sounds like Teatimer.There's a sticky about a fix here:

When you click the close box,Teatimer denies the change.
Here is how to get Spybot to run at start-up,after you reboot(taken from one of md usa spybot fan's posts.)
Try to run it the next time you reboot.
* Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced mode > Settings > Settings > look for
"System start" (located half way down the page).
* Check the option: "Run program once at next system startup".
* Reboot the system.
(adding this,because I went past my 15 minute edit opportunity.)
To return Spybot from Advanced mode to normal mode,just open Spybot,click Mode up top,then select Default Mode.
Or you could just run another Spybot scan after you fix Teatimer,then Allow the change for Spybot to run on reboot,might be easier.
