Publisher's Description
From Javacool Software:
SpywareBlaster doesn't scan for and clean spyware--it prevents it from being installed in the first place. SpywareBlaster prevents the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, dialers, browser hijackers, and other potentially unwanted programs. It can also block spyware/tracking cookies in IE and Mozilla/Firefox, and restrict the actions of spyware/ad/tracking sites. With the built-in Check for Updates feature, you can help ensure your protection is up-to-date. SpywareBlaster also includes a System Snapshot feature, which lets you take a snapshot of your computer in its clean state and later revert, undoing many changes made by spyware and browser hijackers.
Version 3.5.1 improves updating with new Turbo-Update technology, adds various feature and protection enhancements, tweaks, and optimizations.
What's new in this version: This version adds improved updating with new Turbo-Update technology, various feature and protection enhancements, and various other bug fixes, tweaks, and optimizations.

"This is a reassuring first line of defence."
Version: SpywareBlaster 3.5.1
Pros
It sets up defences to prevent infections rather than removing the problems afterwards, and works without subsequent user involvement.
Cons
I'm not one of those who can claim never to have found another infection by scanning since installation with other products.
Summary
I doesn't seem to me to be perfect, but is no trouble and reassuring.

"Spy What? :-)"

Been using this for years and its never failed me so far the best their is
anywhere on the web.
-
"Very happy"
Version: SpywareBlaster 3.5.1
Pros
Been running this for over two years and I have no spyware issues.
Just remember it doesn't scan, it just BLOCKS!
Cons
I wish you didn't have to pay for auto-update, but I can understand the company's need for it.

"Don't leave home without it."
Version: SpywareBlaster 3.5.1
Pros
No. Really. It is clean and simple. Not a cleaner. It is proactive protection. If something does get in you gotta use another tool to get rid of it, but this program prevents a lot of stuff from getting in.
Cons
None. What is to dislike. It does exactly what it says it does. I love it.

"works great! RECOMMENDED!"
Version: SpywareBlaster 3.5.1
Pros
Haven't had any issues at all with this. After installing this, the number of spy ware found has been minimal, if not nonexistent. Remember to update and make sure you still scan with another spyware program, like spybot S&D
Cons
the manual update (have to pay to automatically do it)

-
"Simple."
Version: SpywareBlaster 3.5.1
Pros
SpywareBlaster's "immunizer" is similar to Spybot SD's Immunizers. It prevents spyware from being installed, or actually the sites that lead to spyware and malware. I appreciated this software's system "snapshot", something just like system restore but on a diet version. The updates in small, simple files is also great.
Cons
I would like a daily interval of updates, well at least one a week, since SpywareBlaster takes an awfully dreaddul 3-4 weeks to update once. I would also suggest upgrading V.3.5.1.

"the first thing a computer must have before going on the internet"
Version: SpywareBlaster 3.5.1
Pros
concept is good.blocks spyware.
custom blocking feature is unique! and helpful.
Cons
even though it said it blocked 2o7.net this cookie was still on my system.
a spyware may have different registry keys but same name. but in custom blocking feature you must give different names. i hope spywareblaster will correct this minor problem.
also how to send the infected files in custom blocking section to spywareblaster website for testing?
