I updated the Spybot definitions today and I had scanned just previous
to this update. Then I scanned after the update and in red Microsoft
Security registry Dword=0 was displayed.
I use AVG and ZoneAlarm+ so in my registry the override firewall and
antivirus in the Microsoft security section has a ONE.
In the Registry monitoring list below this Security entry these products
are not included.

Hmmm....One does mean Yes and Zero means NO doesn't it?

I have written a query at the Spybot contact site but I wondered if
anyone else has experienced this and what action is taken?
If I direct Spybot to make a correction does it not revise the registry
to include the Microsoft firewall and antivirus?

Got results with search terms "Spybot" security
A recent report in the microsoft.public.windowsxp.general indicates
-that it is to be viewed as 'information" and to flag that section to be
avoided.
-it does not change the registry input.
The way the info is presented in Spybot is a little confusing.
