Hi

I've enabled All Protection and closed the application as stated in the Help
file. How do I know that I am protected? I checked my Processes but cannot
find the file.

Look forward to your reply.
Thank you.
Julia

Spyware Blaster doesn't run a process after you close the application.
It protects your system by changing settings to prevent spyware from
being installed.

Goto Internet options

Security tab -> Restriced sites -> Click on "Sites" button.
and
Privacy tab -> Click on "Sites" button.


You will see bunch of website address in list box.
These sites are set by Spywarebaslter software.

That's how you get protection from Spywareblaster.

Spywareblaster doesn't use actual program to protect. It set internet options
to protect from unwanted websites.

SpywareBlaster does not provide 'active' or 'real-time' protection against
harmful processes. It blocks sites that are known to distribute
spyware/adware/malware and harmful scripts.

There are products that provide real-time protection, including Microsoft's
free AntiSpyware program:
http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx

Other options:

Hi Julia,

SpywareBlaster:
http://www.wilderssecurity.net/spywareblaster.html

SpywareBlaster doesn't scan and clean for spyware – it prevents it from ever being
installed. SpywareBlaster is a non memory resident utility. It works by setting a "kill
bit" for the CLSIDs of spyware ActiveX controls in the registry, to prevents the
installation of any of them from a webpage.
