Does Spyblaster block spyware?

Does Splybaster actually keep "junk" from getting into your system when you download a theme or screen saver? I have gotten new.net, Lycos searchbar and Bonzi Buddy in the past. I have Spyblaster, Spy Guard, Spybot S & D, and Ad Aware, but I downloaded a theme today, got 2 BHO securtiy announcements and had them removed, but once it was installed I had Lycos and Bonzi Buddy both in my computer. Spybot S & D removed them, plus some gator stuff. How can I set these up so I can still download a theme or ss once in awhile, without fear of getting these things? That was why I have such programs installed.

SpywareBlaster doesn't scan and clean for spyware - it prevents it from ever being installed.

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!

You won't get any more annoying "Yes/No" boxes popped up, asking you to install a spyware ActiveX control (which can increasingly be found in pop-up ads!). In fact, Internet Explorer will never even download or run the spyware ActiveX control!
