Hi. I have the latest versions and definitions of spywareblaster, spybot, adaware, MRU-Blaster, AOL Spyware protection (ASP), and peerguardian. Oh also XP HOME SP1, all critical and other updates installed. I have all protection enabled in Spywareblaster, and i scan with adaware and MRU-Blaster about once a day (i do heavy interent surfing). Adaware usually only comes up with a few cookies which i get rid of. If i run AOL Spyware protection by itself or even right after using Adaware and spybot, it always comes up with 2 items: SaveNow and 2020Search (and occasionally Dyfuca). But everytime i click to block those items, i open up spywarebalster and there are like 4 or 5 items unchecked, and there were none before. This only happens after i block items with ASP. Is it another way of aol fooling its customers? This may be important since AOL is used by so many people.
