I have Win XP and I followed the instructions to disable all protection but when I went to add/ remove programs it gave me the error C:/ program files spywareblaster/unin000.dat does not exist. Cannot unistall. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

melmcbee,

Reinstall SpywareBlaster 3.1 That should place the unins000.dat file in your SpywareBlaster directory. Then, leave all protection disabled and uninstall v3.1

Once version 3.1 is removed, you should be able to install version 3.2
Version 3.2 as well as version 3.1 places the unins000.dat file in your SpywareBlaster directory. That file MUST be present to uninstall any version. So, do NOT remove or delete that file in the future.

You can get a copy of SpywareBlaster 3.1 from here if you don't already have one:

Hope that helps,

Thank-you so much! I apologize for the duplicate thread.
I don't know how that file got removed to begin with. Again Thank-you :D
