SpywareBlaster 3.4 released!

SpywareBlaster 3.4 has been released!

New in this version:
-Improved updating (and fixes for updating issues some users experienced with previous versions)
-Improved support for users with large fonts / DPI settings
-Various cosmetic fixes/improvements
-Further optimizations to certain parts of the program
-And lots of other bug fixes and requested tweaks

This 3.4 release provides bug fixes and enhanced performance.
Various issues people have been having with previous releases should be fixed.

NEW UPDATING OPTIONS IN SPYWAREBLASTER 3.x
SpywareBlaster still offers the built-in Check for Updates feature. This feature is completely free and allows you to keep up-to-date by clicking on a button in the SpywareBlaster interface.

SpywareBlaster 3.4 now offers SpywareBlaster AutoUpdate - a brand-new updating solution. Just set it up, and AutoUpdate will check at every system boot for the latest updates and enable the newest protection (other options are available).

As much as we would like to provide auto-updating functionality for free, bandwidth costs are simply too great to make it feasible. AutoUpdate functionality is $9.95 (US) per year, which helps to cover the bandwidth costs. The Check for Updates function remains completely free, as does SpywareBlaster. You only need to pay if you wish to have the extra convenience of AutoUpdate.

Enjoy!

The 10.00 Dollar auto update is the best deal since sliced bread. The best 20.00
I have ever spent.
Thank You very much for this wonderful software.

 

wow great job i have an idea for future editions. for the updates can we see what things it blocks? i have always wondered what it blocks in each update

 

Nice update javacool Very easy to install

 

No problems here either !! But then again ........ there never are. I've had the auto update pretty much since I first installed Spyware Blaster.

Dunno. It was fine on all the computers I've installed 3.4 on so far - two Win XP and one Win 98.

Anyway, you can uninstall it by going here:

Program Files>SpywareBlaster>Double click "unins000". That should do it.

 

does 3.4 add back slient install?

 

Just installed SB v3.4. I was having some issues with the AutoUpdate feature previously and now everything is working great.

Thanks a lot Javacool.

 

Just installed Spyblaster 3.4 and I hoped it would solve a problem from 3.3 - it has not. I use 2005 Norton Sec & Antiv. Also Spybot, Adaware and Spyware Xterminator (SpyX) - yes, I am paranoid. I bought a Sony desktop last year and am running Win XP. SpyX is the only program to “see” this problem - It has been pointing out a pest which I continue to delete but it kept re-appearing. Then I noticed that 3.3 and now 3.4 had 1 item unprotected - essentially the same pest. Each time I re-enabled the protection it appears via SpyX then when deleted it reappears as an unprotected item on 3.3 and now 3.4.
Spy X calls it WEBSEARCH TOOLBAR HIJACKER released 5/5/05 locate: HKEY_LOCAL_MCAHINE\software\micorsoft\internetexplorer\activex xcompatability\{8952a998-1e7e-4716-b23dbe-3910972}.
3.4 labels it : HUNTBAR VARIANT {{8952A998-1E7E-4716-B23DBE-3910972}
What is this program? How/why does this program disable 3.4's protection when it is deleted by another program ? How does it reappear? More important - how can I get rid of it? Or should I set SpyX to ignore it when it scans if I can? PLEASE HELP

 

Well I hope the autoupdate works now, cause I paid and it hasn't worked correctly once. And don't blame me, all my other software updates fine, it's your software. Fix it!

 

Another excellent release of an excellent program - thank you very much!
