    i would like to know if its hard to make a program as small as spywareblaster coz if its not why do they take so long to release a new versiono_O?

    and how come spywareblaster has been out for a couple of years now and spyware shield has a bigger databaseo_O

    now spywareblaster protects against flash and firefox something that spywareshield doesn't??

    i use firefox is it recommended to use spywareshield with spywareblaster or there is conflicto_O

    and does spywareshield protect against firefoxo_O

    as well does spyware shield prevent spyware if u download it for example from a P2P or it doesn't it only protect against spyware if u download from IEo_O

    Spywareshield will set KILLBITS in the registry to prevent Spyware to install themselves through webpages in IE.

    If you download a software and that software contains spyware Spyware Shield and Spyware Blaster won't protect you.

    In regards to the small size of the programs do note that even if there small they contain 1000 of lines of codes... Makes it long enough to go through it all.

    (Read the FAQ and the help files with both programs) all your questions are answered in them.
