SpywareBlaster
Blaster Upgraded +
Pros: What caught my attention of v.4.1 was the slick design, compared to SpywareBlaster 3.5.1. It had that Vista Aero feeling.
When I ran it, it was much faster than it's predecessor v.4.0
SpywareBlaster provides a good comprehension of what it's blocking and where it is blocking. It adds killbits where disables malicious Active-X's and ads from intervening.
Overall, SpywareBlaster is a great arsenal to your collection. It does not run in the background, but just one click and the protection is activated permanent.
Cons: Integrated support for Opera browsers.
A future idea would be something of a "real-time" protection and a "network shield". ;)

Great preventive measures
Pros: It is simple and easy to use. It is geared to do one main thing and that is to prevent spyware from having a chance.
Cons: i think the distance of the preventive measures are just the beginning and more can be done. With the help of Spybot Search and Destroy and Advanced windows care i get a lot more results and protection.

I'm suddenly not so sure about this app.
Pros: I've been a longtime fan of SpywareBlaster & have had no problems with it up to now. Have been virtually infection free, which I assumed was a sign of it's effectiveness.
Cons: I updated to version 4.1 from 4.0 on 12/6/08. I received an update to the definition database the following day & a subsequent scan with AVG 7.5 free alerted me to Trojan Horse Dropper.Agent.IPC in the file sbautoupdate.exe. I'm now going to uninstall this app as I don't need the hassle of having a security app which gives me issues of this nature.
