I check with Spybot S&D and when it is finished it shows this -

Error during check.

Congratulations.
No immediate threats found.

I have checked for faulty configuration but everything appears to be OK.

Can someone explain why there is an error, and what will zap it

Try the following:
Open Spybot in advanced mode.
Look in the top menu for the item 'Mode', select Advanced.
Click Settings
In the Settings pane, navigate to the section for Web Update.
Tick the box for 'Display available beta versions'.
Select the icon for 'Update'.
Search for updates.
Select the update for the Spybot S&D 1.4.2b (beta) main application.
Download the selected updates.

Reboot and try Spybot again.
