    Default Spybot Unsigned Driver WinDivert

    After installing Spybot Anti-Beacon 4.1 I get the following
    message.

    Spybot Anti-Beacon Signed Driver.PNG

    Here is the file locations:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Safer-Networking Ltd\Spybot Anti-Beacon\x64\WinDivert.dll
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Safer-Networking Ltd\Spybot Anti-Beacon\x64\WinDivert64.sys

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Safer-Networking Ltd\Spybot Anti-Beacon\x86\WinDivert.dll
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Safer-Networking Ltd\Spybot Anti-Beacon\x86\WinDivert32.sys
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Safer-Networking Ltd\Spybot Anti-Beacon\x86\WinDivert64.sys

    I would like to know what this driver does?

    I am running Win7 Pro x64.

    Text of the message:

    ! Program Compatibility Assistant

    ! Windows requires a digitally signed driver

    A recently installed program tried to install an unsigned
    driver. This version of Windows requires all drivers to have a
    valid digital signature. The driver is unavailable and the
    program that uses this driver might not work correctly.

    Uninstall the program or device that uses this driver and
    check the publisher's support website to get a digitally
    signed driver.

    You can select Anti-beacon in the pull-down menu on the contact page under Software & License. You might want to fill out the contact page and submit it to Team Spybot:
