Netscape protection and Custom CLSID's

lhite31 · Sep 6, 2004

Will Spyblaster have a patch or an upgrade in the near future to allow Spyblaster to check Netscape 7.2 for spyware?

When I add Item to the Custom Blocking tab, where do I find the CLSID? I have looked everywhere I know of to find it.

Start SpywareBlaster, click "Tools" and select the "Custom Blocking" tab.
Click "Add Item" and fill out the name you want it to have.

Then fill out the CLSID (don't forget the accolades):

and click OK.

Then the item will show up in the custom block list:

Then put a checkmark in the box and click "Protect Against Checked Items" and you are done.

And low and behold, if you have added something that Javacool decides to add as well, it will show when you get that update.
As you can see, Javacool decided to give it a different name, but the Xupiter / SearchSquire Variant is already checked, thus showing the kill-bit was already set:

If that happens you can select the item in the Custom Blocklist and click "Remove Selected Item" (Don't remove the protection though)

HTH,

Pieter

Hey Lloyd,

When a user adds a Custom CLSID....it will be seen in the Tools\Custom Blocking section of SpywareBlaster only and will not be listed in SpywareBlaster's Internet Explorer protection list.

Edit
One other place you can "find it" would be in the below registry key.

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility
