I ran some tests and it appears to be a problem with the immunize
feature within Spybot. It looks like they are corrupting the key for

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet
Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\5starvideos.com

This causes the key to be useless for protection and SpywareBlaster
recognizes that the key needs to be reset. You should run
SpywareBlaster after you immunize with Spybot in order to reset the
key until Spybot fixes the problem. I don't feel like reporting it to
them myself so if someone else wants to, then be my guest.
