    Thanks for the note. After popping back into SpyBot S&D, I see it
    lists a missing immunization. ;) I'll update the posted text file to
    incorporate this.

    I heard about this as well. I didn't have any form of VNC installed on
    this system. (I normally use TightVNC, however this system is on a KVM
    with my production machine.) You can tell it to "always ignore"
    something, which I found handy for the various keyloggers/trojans I
    had saved that I knew about. It didn't detect them on subsequent
    scans.
