I installed SpywareBlaster yesterday and made live update. I am still getting a fewspy software like Avenue A Inc., and DoubleClick.

Am I to expect a few of them to penetrate?

Are these prompts from Spybots's immunize feature? If so, you will still get those prompts because Spybot added blocking of those cookies in your system before SpywareBlaster. You can remove all immunize protection from Spybot and check again with SpywareBlaster. If there are any new red ones showing in SpywareBlaster, then check those and enable protection. Then reimmunize with Spybot to regain any protection it provides.

If that's not it, then let us know how you are being informed of this, and then we'll see what it is.

Also, if you are using Internet Explorer older than version 6, SpywareBlaster won't block the cookies.
