I run this proggie every couple of days along with AdAware and SpyBot =
Search & Destroy. The newest version of Spyware Blaster is picking up so =
much stuff that AdAware & Spybot are not having much to do lately. Just =
don't rely on one proggie for dealing with spyware. All three will =
provide you with a good defense.

>=20
>=20
> SpywareBlaster doesn't scan and clean for spyware - it prevents it =
from ever being installed.
>=20
> By setting a "kill bit" for spyware ActiveX controls, SpywareBlaster =
can prevent the installation of any spyware ActiveX controls from a =
webpage. It does this while not interfering with "friendly" ActiveX =
controls - so your browser can work correctly and you can have peace of =
mind!
>=20
> You won't get any more annoying "Yes/No" boxes popped up, asking you =
to install a spyware ActiveX control (which can increasingly be found in =
pop-up ads!). In fact, Internet Explorer will never even download or run =
the spyware ActiveX control!
>=20
> In addition, SpywareBlaster can prevent many of these spyware ActiveX =
controls from running, even if they are already installed on your =
system.*
>=20
> The newest SpywareBlaster version can even block spyware/tracking =
cookies!=20
> And SpywareBlaster does not need to be running in the background to =
provide this protection!
>=20
> The SpywareBlaster database contains information on these known =
spyware Active-X controls. Make sure you run the Check For Updates =
feature frequently to get the latest database! (And make sure you check =
the new items to protect your system against them!)
>=20
>=20
> SpywareBlaster also provides the exclusive System Snapshot! - Take a =
snapshot of your computer in its clean state, and use System Snapshot =
later to revert many changes made by spyware and browser hijackers!
>=20
> SpywareBlaster System Snapshot works a lot like Microsoft's System =
Restore for Windows ME/XP - however it exclusively targets items used by =
spyware and browser hijackers to embed themselves into your system - so =
you can get the results you want: a spyware-free system. It provides the =
following benefits:
>=20
> a.. Only targets items used by spyware and browser hijackers to =
embed themselves into your system - so you can get the results that you =
want: a spyware-free system=20
> b.. Detects changes and additions - and alerts of both on a restore =
operation=20
> c.. Provides a list of changed/added items - so the user has full =
control over what will be restored=20
> d.. Covers hundreds of items - including the most popular areas =
altered by browser hijackers and spyware, as well as many currently =
un-tapped areas=20
> e.. And much much more!=20
