    I keep getting disabled protection in my Spyware Blaster on restricted sites and with this, i keep getting 3 bits of Spyware in my registry, being:-

    xxxtoolbar.com
    pluginaccess.com
    coolwwwsearch.com

    I have never been on these sites and don't know why they keep on appearing!

    I am not using Spysweeper on my system either, as i have read some of the other threads and they say that Spysweeper causes a problem!

    Can someone help me with this please?

    :)

    Do you use any other antispyware products besides SpySweeper, either as an on-line protection or to scan your system?

    Sounds like you have a malware problem !? I would encourage to seek help
    from the Experts on the forum(s) of your antiSPYWARE provider or go to
    www.landzdown.com and ask there .

    SpywareBlaster adds the following registry entries to place xxxtoolbar.com, pluginaccess.com and coolwwwsearch.com into Internet Explorer's restricted zone:

    Bulletproof is evidently misinterpreting and removing those entries.

    Bulletproof is listed as Rogue/Suspect Anti-Spyware here.
