Hi iroq9555,
Well overkill or not, always check this SpywareBlaster tool or "full protection loaded". On a rare occasion I had to re-establish the full protection mode as some protection came disabled. This was when I remember it right when I had a close encounter with the Conduit pest that came as an undesirable bundled with some download from what I thought as a respectable download site. So SpywareBlaster should be checked after downloads for still carrying its full protection.
I also started with this tool as a form of added protection for "BigBlue", and as IE forms an integral part of the OS, that was the main reason for the initial install of the proggie. It sits silent there, does not need much maintenance and does not weigh heavy on the old cycles.
Just ike to hear your pro's and con's for this tool, folks? What for a browser like BrowzarSilver2000?
