Issue with "Tea timer.exe"?

Hello everyone! (uh, rather good evening there oO)

So here it is, I wanted to turn off my computer, and now a message (or rather a bunch of messages…) appears (one below the other, you see what I mean?)

"Access violation at address 0046FBF5 in module 'TeaTimer.exe'. Read of address 00000011"

Below, as if it were an "ok" button, but this button is actually empty. I don’t really dare to click on it XD I’ve tried closing it many times with the cross, but after a while, the same message appears in a smaller window…

Anyway, so here’s my problem, I’ve already searched, but I didn’t find anything, except that it’s related to spybot? (As long as it’s not some sort of nasty virus, I’ll be happy…). And now I don’t dare turn off my computer…

Thanks in advance!

Hello or good evening, as you wish, uninstall Spybot, run CCleaner in the registry, and then either reinstall it, but personally since you normally have Windows Defender by default with Vista, use it by putting it in resident mode

Thank you for this response (very quick too^^).
So there you go, no more spybot on my computer, and I admit it was more of a hassle than anything else!

-> Problem solved!

Hello, okay but activate the resident function of Windows Defender
