If for some reason you think you need SB-S&D on top of ESET and MBAM (and again, I don't see why) then I would still uninstall it, reboot, and install the latest version again and see what happens. It is only the annoying alert and I wish to keep Defender as it is the most decent thing Microsoft did or at least I believe. Please bear in mind that Spybot is running. yes, Warning from Windows Action Center as mentioned. If me, I would uninstall SB-S&D, reboot, may sure Windows is fully updated and call it a day.

I then restarted, created another System Restore Point, and then installed/updated/ran Spybot again, only to have it lockup once again at the same point.

His processor is 2 GHz +, with loads of hard drive space, and I believe 384 MB RAM.
