I'm considering to get spywareblaster, but I'm not sure if it supports my Opera browser. Does it ?

Regards jurij20 :)

Oops, my apologies, forgot it only covers IE and Mozilla/Firefox.

SpywareBlaster is primarily an ActiveX control blocker, but also blocks access to some known spyware sites. It has support for IE and Mozilla/Firefox browsers, but no specific support for Opera. Using Opera, you really don't need SpywareBlaster for the most part, but for those occasional times when you have to use IE, then why not?

Thanks for your replies. All are appreciated :D
I seldom use IE, and use Opera for the most part and have a good antivirus (Norton) which block most threats ( it seems )... but if spywareblaster doesn't use much resources, hey it couldn't hurt using it. Tho I'm secured enough...I think.

Additionally I use ad-aware and spybot s&d.
Security is important!
