    Would someone help me please?
    The spywareblaster restricted sites dont show up in the settings panel of my internet explorer v6.0.2900.2180. I think my swp is installed and set up properly (it says "0 items have protection disabled / 6937 items in database).

    Besides spywareblaster im using the following tools:
    - Avira antivir
    - A-squared free
    - Ad-aware
    - Avg anti-spyware
    - Hostsman
    - Secure-it
    - Spybot

    (I dont use spyware sweeper)

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    If you do indeed have the Restricted Sites selection Restrict the actions.... checked in Spywareblaster but do not see them listed in IE's Tools\Interent Options\Security tab\Restricted sites\Sites, my first thought is something or someone has selected Use only machine settings as a policy ?

    Per some of your other posts it appears you are using Windows 2000 ?

    If you take a look at the below registry location....do you find that entry ?

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\Internet settings....security_hklm_only

    That was on another computer. The current problem appears under windows xp.

    Yes. The value was set to "1". I changed it to "0" and now the problem is gone and all the missing urls appear in the settings. Thank you for the time you spent helping me, Bubba! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:
