Try running SpybotSD in safe mode. If not - run system restore yourself 
and then try to disable the restore point in the SD options? Don't know 
if that's possible, best of luck.

What OS? What v or SpyBot?

run spybot in advanced mode click on mode then advanced and under setting
turn off the 2 settings for create a restore point in win xp. I have run in
to this on several machines and have found no common cause, would guess it
is a problem in windows.

 I've had that happen a couple of times. To get around it, I turned off 
system restore, ran Spybot, and then turned it back on. Keep in mind that 
doing this deletes all your restore points. But they could well be infected 
too, in which case a system restore would restore "bad stuff" again.

Just create a restore point manually before running any program you're not
100% sure about

There is an option in SpyBot 1.3 to allow you to disable SpyBot from setting
a restore point.
