    when I run spybot, I get this:
    --- Search result list ---
    Microsoft.WindowsSecurityCenter.AntiVirusDisableNotify: Settings (Registry change, nothing done)
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\AntiVirusDisableNotify!=dword:0

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

    DO I ALLOW SPYBOT TO DELETE THESE?

    No! It cannot fix them anyway because they are normal! They are not malware indications. They are just messages telling you that you have changed from the default settings of Windows Security Center. This just means that you probably have installed your own antivirus and firewall applications to provide your own security center. If you did not do this, then there would be a problem.
