Default Spyware Stopper?

Being along time user of SpyBlocker I wondered if any of readers here have any comments to make about Spyware Stopper. http://www.spyware-stopper.com/spystop/screens.htm
Loking at the screenshots it looks as though it is doing a Javacool type job but with all the tools combined?

Thanks for any replies. Pilli

I got it and I am finding it a bit hard to get used to. I do believe in a week or two it will be good, when I get the hang of it, that is. I don't think I would have paid the full price for it, special offer for Spyblocker
owners.
It seems to do the same job as Pop-upStopper and CookieWall.
That is only my opinion and I too would like to see comments from other users.

Right, I am back again happy and wiser. I mentioned above about my thoughts of this product.
I am happy now to say it is a Bl00dy good job and does it's job well.
I am also able to run two processes less when using SpywareStopper.
I would recommend it to anyone willing to give it a try, I installed latest
V1.2 Sunday. It was released July 19.
It does, in my opinion, take a bit of getting used to.

So i hope we talking of the same Spywarestopper?
