Spybot S&D Immunization Trouble

[Comp Guy]

This error comes up when I try to immunize in Spybot S&D:

[kuszmania9999]

make sure you're the admin

[unlovedwarrior]

try in safe mode

[Comp Guy]

make sure you're the admin

I own this comp, and NO one else uses it!

try in safe mode

Will try that later and let you know how it goes.

[unlovedwarrior]

also try uninstalling reinstalling

You still may not be Admin, of course it could be Spybot retaliating against your computer for the colour scheme.

Have you tried doing what the program is suggesting? I.e. Run it as administrator. Right click Spybot's shortcut and select Run as Administrator.

In Vista, programs by default aren't executed with admin privileges even if your account have admin privileges.

Thanks Deerpark, it worked. I didn't know that programs with the little sheild icon on them could run in two different modes, even though when I first start it in normal mode, it come up with the "admin privilages of annoyance screen".... lol (if you didn't understand what I said let me know and I will clarify it.)

[Deerpark]

Yep I understand what you mean. I'm not entirely clear on why either, just know that even though you're asked at startup if you want to escalate the privileges of the program it still doesn't run with admin rights.

[Comp Guy]

I wonder if there is any way to change that...

[unlovedwarrior]

remove vista lol

[CBMatt]

remove vista lol

Probably one of the best suggestions I've seen lately.

Well this is the only computer I own, and so I would need XP, but I don't have any copies of it.

Upgrading all the way to W2K would be a better option.
I feel like I'm stalking you lately Comp Guy.
