Hello,

This is Spybots way of telling you that your AV may be turned off. Go to Start> Control Panel> and open the Security Center and make sure your AV is turned on.

Why don't you post here in the Spybot forum, they know this program inside and out and can have you set it up correctly

This is neither a false positive nor a bug. It is just an information.
Spybot-S&D only wants to bring to your attention that "someone" disabled one or more notifications in the Windows Security Center, e.g. the notifications that your virus protection is not active or not up-to-date. If you changed the settings yourself you can safely tell Spybot-S&D to exclude those detections from further scans.
In order to do so please right-click each in turn, then click "exclude this detection from future scans". That way, should any other part of security center settings change, Spybot-S&D will still detect those.



Hope this helps

Hello Mynna, Lets hope all stays well, I will leave this tread open for you for about a week in case you need to post back, if the thread is closed after that time just start a new topic. ( lets hope you don't need to) It does look like the reason for it coming back was removed. Ken
