Spyware has increasingly been a problem for many persons as they surf the web and find themselves beleaguered by Yes/No boxes and other annoyances. SpyWare Blaster 2.6.1 prevents the installation of any spyware ActiveX controls, and will prevent many of these controls from running, even if they may be already installed on any given system. Another nice feature is the System Snapshot which takes a snapshot of the user's computer in its clean state and allows users to target items used by spyware and browser hijackers to embed themselves into the computer"s system. This version is compatible with all systems running Windows 95 and higher.
