"v- 4.5"
by: mweizer
SpywareBlaster 4.5
Pros: SB 4.5 now supports FF and Pale Moon 8.0+
Installed size: 5.3mb; free manual updates (try ~weekly)
It doesn't "run" , it "works" via your browser as HOST settings (passive protection/immunization) so sites/content in its database won't load
Mostly geared to IE engine
(I have Pale Moon, seems to just do tracking cookies-- I could be wrong, it's not clear. But it says,
"Many other programs use Internet Explorer as a default browser, or use the Internet Explorer engine to display their interface or content. So even if your browser is not listed below (e.g. Opera), SpywareBlaster will protect you in many other cases." Cons: I spent far too much time on this
It should have most of this info in its Description
What it does , How it does it , What it does it with AND the update Other Thoughts:
New in this version:
-Added Pale Moon browser support.
-Improved support for the latest versions of Mozilla Firefox.
-Improved support for certain non-standard user account configurations.
-Improved installer experience on Windows Vista/7.
-Fixed rare updating issues.
-Numerous other bug fixes, optimizations, and tweaks.
Also, Flock browser support was removed in this release. The Flock browser is no longer actively maintained or supported by its makers.
Provides Protection for the Following Browsers:
Internet Explorer
and any browsers that use the Internet Explorer engine, including:
AOL web browser
Avant Browser
Slim Browser
Maxthon (formerly MyIE2)
and more
Mozilla Firefox
Netscape
Seamonkey
Pale Moon

"Not Bad."
by: Mouse Chaser
SpywareBlaster 4.4
Pros: This Used To Be A Good Spyware Blocker,That Used To Work With Previous Versions Of Firefox Browsers. But Since Firefox Has Been Updated Regularly This Program Does not Always Work. Cons: Took This Off My Windows 7 When Firefox Updated To Version 5. Other Thoughts: This Is Not A Bad Program For Older Versions Of Windows And Older Browser Versions.Was this review helpful? 32 out of 50 users found this review helpful.

"Confused very confused"
by: Ivehadit
SpywareBlaster 4.4
Pros: It sat there on my computer Cons: Was it actually doing anything Other Thoughts: I'm no computer expert and for many years I have had this program on my old computer, and apart from updating it now and again it just sat there. I did occasionally get spyware, prehaps from visiting websites that one should not. Enough said.
I was about to load it onto my new computer and decided to read more about it. Now it gets confusing. First Point. If its not running in the background then how does it know if spyware is getting on to my computer. Second Point, It tells me I can take a snapshot of my computer in a clean state and revert many changes made by spyware and browser hijackers. So now I asked are the owners of this software admitting spyware and browser hijackers can still get on to my computer even thought I have this program installed.
If that's case is it really worth my while installing it,

"The Best"
by: Ray Martin
Other Thoughts: I have been using this product for years and it is brilliant. I don't know what The Vermin8tor is talking about, because you do not need a serial number for the free product. I suspect he/she opted for the commercial product by way of not reading before clicking OKWas this review helpful? 54 out of 116 users found this review helpful.

"Great product...BUT..."
by: The Vermin8tor
Other Thoughts: You need the serial key to get the crucial updates. 'A static fish is a dead fish' so this software may block the listed viruses inside it,for a time.How about someone putting it here?Was this review helpful? 51 out of 95 users found this review helpful.

"v- 4.1"
by: mweizor
Other Thoughts:
New in this version:
-Mozilla Firefox 3 support
-Numerous bug fixes and tweaks
I found this info in the Forum --- but the authors should supply this info when they freeware post new/updated versions.
If you already have this installed, the new release can not be downloaded via the program updater.
They suggest disabling all protection, uninstalling old version, then install new version.
Easy to use, immunizer, plus other related tools, free manual updates (historically, batched every 7 or 15 days).
Worth the ~4mb of installed space.Was this review helpful? 41 out of 86 users found this review helpful.

"Easy to use"
by: Elvis
Other Thoughts: This program is fantastic and so easy to use and there no need for a real time scanner when this program prevents spyware getting on your computer rather than having to clean your pc after the spyware infectionWas this review helpful? 43 out of 101 users found this review helpful.
