SpywareBlaster takes a bit of a different approach to preventing Spyware, Malware, Trojans etc. Most of the other anti-spyware programs scan for existing infections and attempt to remove them. SpywareBlaster takes measures to ensure that various places on the web are blocked at your computer level, so your computer never attracts the bad programs in the first place.

SpywareBlaster is geared more towards Internet Explorer, (since IE is where most of the problems come from) but, SpywareBlaster also has the capability to block certain cookies for Mozilla Firefox as well.

SpywareBlaster is a free program to use and update with the only drawback being automatic updates... While it will allow free updates, they require a yearly subscription fee in order for it to automatically update. This just means you will have to remember to keep it manually updated!
