Thanks Asyn,

Hi, SpyWareBlaster version 4.2 kept 12299 loads of malware misery neatly on the other side of your computer castle moat, now update manually to version 4.4.: Here an update for SpywareBlaster version 4.4 that protects against 13838 threats: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/sbdownload_free.html

P.S. Why add the additional prevention that SpyWareBlaster offers:

There are several important reasons:

1.) Most anti-spyware programs focus on removal, which can leaves your computer at risk until you decide to run a scan.

SpywareBlaster focuses on prevention - preventing spyware and other potentially unwanted software from installing in the first place, helping keep your system and your privacy safe and secure.

2.) Many protection programs are “resident”, and must remain running in the background to keep your system protected.

SpywareBlaster does not need to remain running in the background to enable protection, which means there are no extra processes running and using up your computer’s memory and processor.

3.) Some programs try to do everything, and may end up doing nothing well. Plus, there is the potential for a vulnerability that affects an “all in one” product to compromise your entire defenses.

Users and experts agree - it’s best to have layered security.
And SpywareBlaster provides a powerful layer of protection against spyware and other potentially unwanted software. It is proven and trusted,

One question polonus: SpywareBlaster is better than ThreaFire? reply in a message please. I know this topic is for Updates purposes.

They are completely different so can’t be compared in a simplistic better/worse context. If you wish to continue/expand your question, do so in a new topic in the General forum.
