Same problem here.
I went to upgrade to 3.5, and my SpywareBlaster 3.4 is not found in Add/Remove Programs. Is there a "manual" uninstall procedure?
Still using W98SE.

Just reinstall 3.4 over top, then it should show up again in Add and Remove programs. Don't forget to disable all protection in SWB when u finally do uninstall.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I tried that, and it still didn't show up in Add/Remove. I even re-booted in case it needed to update the registry or something. Not there.
Any other options?

Does SWB show up in your Program Files?
If so go in and try uninstall using the unins000.exe file.

Thanks!
That was the answer. I had gone part of the way earlier by looking for the uninstall in the start menu, but failed to look in the Program Files folder.
BTW, SWB 3.5 is up and running, but still does not appear in Add/Remove...
Appreciate your help.
Happy and prosperous New Year!
