love the program.
i'm constantly getting invaded, as spybot tells me, by something called "dso exploit"
is there a way to block it or can it be added to spyware blaster??????????

thanks,

It's a bug in Spybot, you can safely ignore it. Run a search on it here in Wilders - plenty of posts on the topic.

does it make sense to disable "download unsigned active x controls" or does that give me more problems than dso exploit.
i'm from ottawa originally.................snowbound does not fit toronto........that's almost the banana belt compared to ottawa.

Hi ?lilaco,

You might want to read through this post which will help explain a bit more about why not setting tighter security for ActiveX controls can be dangerous. ;)

Why did I get infected in the first place? (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=27971)
