SpywareBlaster blocking Microsoft File Transfer Manager

SpywareBlaster is blocking the Microsoft File Transfer Manager, used on microsoft.com for MSDN and TechNet downloads.

CLSID: {82774781-8F4E-11D1-AB1C-0000F8773BF0}

Please remove this from the block list.

 

Hi,

SpywareBlaster does not block that CLSID.

What other software do you have installed? Are you using a "Custom Block List" in SpywareBlaster?

(For future reference: You can search the built-in block lists for CLSIDs by simply right-clicking on any Block List, and selecting the "Find..." option.)

Best regards,

I have SB but that clsid is not on Compatibility list in registry
http://www.ie8blog.com/2010/03/22/unable-to-download-msdn-subscription-vbscript-error/

and MS file transfer works fine. Why do you think SB introduced it?

 

There are no custom blocklists in use; any/all SpywareBlaster settings should be at their defaults.

Thanks for the tip for right-click/Find; I wasn't aware of that.

FTM was failing to run (it was prompting for reinstallation of the ActiveX control each time, ad infinitum). I disabled all protection in SpywareBlaster, restarted IE, and FTM worked afterward. I then re-enabled all protection, restarted IE, and FTM was broken again.

OS is Win7 x64, browser is IE8 (32-bit).

 

did you look for that clsid in your SB install?

 

Sorry for the delay in responding. The CLSID wasn't on the list; I'm at a loss for what the problem was.

That being said, the problem has resolved itself sometime over the past three weeks. Unfortunately, I don't know if that was due to a SpywareBlaster list update or the last batch of Windows Updates.

Thanks for the assistance - I know it was my own slow response time that kept you from being more helpful!
