    That's just a bug in Spybot 1.3. They know about it and have fixed the code, but have not yet released an update to the public. See this thread for more on this:

    You can either look at manually updating the registry entries that Spybot is scanning, or just ignore it until Spybot gets updated to handle it itself.

    Spybot S&D is just giving false positives on this thing, in fact the vulnerability does NOT even exist as shown here by DSOStop2:

    Spybot didn't even find it on my computer.
    But DSOStop2 said I had the vulnerability.
