Re: Spybott security risk


Hello Sandra from Team Spybot. I have also recieved the following 3
messages

HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\microsoft\SecurityCenter\AntivirusDisableNotify!=dword:0

HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\microsoft\SecurityCenter\FirewallDisableNotify!=dword:0

HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\microsoft\Securityenter\UpdatesDisableNotify!=dword:0

I did not change anything myself and the program will not let me remove
or "fix" these problems. I restarted the computer and still the same
problem after running Spybot again.

Thank you for any other additional insite.
Regards,
KorColMck
