How is spyblaster different from disabling the activescript in Windows IE?

Hi Steve,

Below is a quote from the SpywareBlaster site (http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html). The part in bold describes the most significant difference.

By setting a "kill bit" for spyware ActiveX controls, SpywareBlaster can prevent the installation of any spyware ActiveX controls from a webpage. It does this while not interfering with "friendly" ActiveX controls - so your browser can work correctly and you can have peace of mind!

Regards,

Pieter
