DSO is a bug in Spybot (harmless) It is supposed to be corrected in a 
future Ver. Here is how you disable it because it drove me nuts seeing 
it there as well.

Open Spybot
Click on Mode
then Advanced Mode
then Settings
then Ignore Products
then Security
then check the DSO's

voila  this beast will be gone
