    just got the new version... updated and scanned, it found 3 results, but i don't think they are malware:

    Windows Security Center.AntivirusDisableNotify
    Windows Security Center.FirewallDisableNotify
    Windows Security Center.UpdateDisableNotify


    i don't use windows firewall, i don't use automatic updates, and i use Avast as my AV... should i remove or ignore these 3 results it picks up? I don't really get notifications from Windows Security Center ever...

    also, is there anything in particular i need to configure with Spybot? I think with the old one there were a few things it didn't scan for by default (or perhaps that was Adaware)? Glad to see it has more immunization protections than 1.3 did...

    thanks for responding.... yeah that discussion was a little confusing (but maybe that's because i'm drunk)... i think i'm just going to set Spybot to IGNORE those entries...
