Spybot S&D Definitions Updated on August 25, 2006
World reknowned anti-spyware program - Spybot Search and Destroy - was updated with new spyware definition files. If you use this program be sure to run manual updates as soon as possible.
If you see a program listed in these detections by name you should assume that is is malware. e.g. WinAntiVirusPro 2006 is definitely malware that masquerades as a solution to the false detections it presents to people whose computers it infects. It is an infection, not a solution! Update your Spybot Search and Destroy definitions, then scan for and fix any malware that is detected.

Note:
If Spybot S&D reports "Microsoft.WindowsSecurityCenter_disabled" you should be aware that this is an informational alert that requires some thinking on your part. The reason is that if you have installed a software firewall that program may (usually does) disable the Windows XP firewall to prevent conflicts. When the built-in firewall is disabled, whether by your own actions or by another security program, a flag is set in the Windows Registry. Spybot is simply reporting that it found the flag set for a portion of the Windows Security Center, of which the Windows Firewall is a part.
If you have not installed a software firewall this could also be caused by an anti-spyware, or anti-virus program/security suite, which contains a firewall component. It could also be caused by spyware, adware, Trojans, backdoors, or other malware that needs to establish two way communications via your hijacked computer and it's Internet connection. So, if you cannot come up with any reasonable explanation as to why the Windows Security Center alerts are disabled, you should suspect foul play and scan your entire computer for viruses and spyware, with everything you have on hand, or can get online - as a free scan.
See this forum thread about Spybot S&D reporting the Security Center is disabled, and what the responders and experts have to say about it.
