When I click on "more info" and highlight an item, I get the following message:

The specified information cannot be found in the item description database. Please run the Check for Updates feature to make sure you have the latest item information (note: not having these descriptions will not prevent the rest of this program from functioning correctly).

I have the latest updates and this only started with the last four or five updates. I understand that this won't prevent the rest of the program from functioning correctly, but just wonder why I am getting this message.

Thank you. :)

I'd be glad to answer. :)

This is a known small bug that is only seen on some Windows 95, 98, and ME systems (it only affects the display of the "more info" past the first 200 or so items, no other program functionality is affected). It will be fixed in the next version, but until then you can simply browse to your SpywareBlaster directory and open the file named "sbinfo.dtb" - that file contains the descriptions in plain text format, and is easy to read.

Best regards,
