    Seems there is something sinister going on here.
    Spybot S&D was installed just now. When trying to open the program the same error came up

    Malwarebytes and Superantispyware are much better than Spybot. If you weren't running proper antivirus and antispyware, you shouldn't have been trying to do repairs yet.
