Spy Sweeper notification

I wonder if you can help me interpret this notice I received when I
swept my computer this morning with Webroot Spy Sweeper.

Informational: Incompatible section minimum version: "6 > 5" in
"SectionalMD5". Skipping... [5] @ TDefFile::ReadAdvancedSection-410

What does it mean, please If it's a problem, what can I do about it?
Thanks.

Well, Webroot probably knows more about their software than anyone else.
Maybe they might know what the notice means.

If it's a 1 time event, doesn't happen again after another sweep, and
all is working well you can probably forget about it and figure it was
just "one of those things" that happens to windows.

Also, it is NOT indicating you have a problem: It is only giving you
"information" about something it found and apparently wasn't able to
sweep because of a version difference. So, did you do a Restart and
then try running the sweep over again? The Restart is important; don't
forget to do it.
Also, I'd suggest checking for updates right after the Restart too.

HTH,

In the future if you must post to more than one group, crosspost, do not

OK, will do. In my defence it's the first time I've done that!
