Here's what the log file c:/Windows/debug/mrt.log of my Windows 7 install says:

WARNING: Security policy doesn't allow for all actions MSRT may require.
->Scan ERROR: resource process://pid:6080 (code 0x00000005 (5))
->Scan ERROR: resource process://pid:5300 (code 0x00000057 (87))
->Scan ERROR: resource process://pid:3512 (code 0x00000057 (87))

I use the default setup. I didn't change anything. This is the first time I checked the log file and this warning is in there from the start.

Can I do something about it? Or I shouldn't be concerned, because it can do everything what's necessary anyway? Do you have this warning in your logfile?
