When I run spybot I get the following results.


Windows Security Center.AntiVirusDisableNotify: Settings (Registry
change, nothing done)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security
Center\AntiVirusDisableNotify!=dword:0

Windows Security Center.FirewallDisableNotify: Settings (Registry
change, nothing done)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security
Center\FirewallDisableNotify!=dword:0

Since the registry is for microsoft\security center\antivirusdisable
notify I am somewhat reluctant to quarantine or delete these entries.
Can anyone provide me some guidance on this. I'm running WIndows XP. I
also have MS Antispyware installed. (I'm a belt and suspenders guy)

You would be better off having adaware, as when i used to have spybot it let
in cetain viruses and spyware of its own.(or is a poor checker!!) When I
noticed pop-ups and my computor slowing down I installed adaware. The minute
i installed adaware I had no problems whatsoever as soon as it found and
resolved the problems.Coupled with a good virus checker like norton that
should solve any problems for you.

regards,
dana
