spa.exe is part of Symantec Live Update, most likely you have a trojan or virus that has deleted the file to keep Norton from updating its virus definitions.

Go to this forum http://www.dellcommunity.com/supportforums/board?board.id=si_hijack and read the RED link at the top and then post your log on that forum along with what you have stated here, also post the Model of Dell you have and the OS Version.
