SpywareBlaster 4.0 has been released!

Prevent the installation of spyware and other potentially unwanted software!

New in this version:
-Full Vista support
-Protection for Netscape
-Protection for Seamonkey
-Protection for Flock
-A brand-new user interface
-Various feature and protection enhancements
-Further optimizations to every part of the program
-And lots of other bug fixes and requested tweaks

This 4.0 release provides enhanced protection, performance, and bug fixes.

UPDATING OPTIONS IN SPYWAREBLASTER
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 also 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, 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.

SpywareBlaster is freeware.
Download the latest version here: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html

Installed. I like the new version very much. Clean interface, and it's not at all bloated down unlike the new version of Ad Aware 2007.

I didn't uninstall and everything went fine.But Javacool recommends uninstalling first.

Upgrade Instructions

It is recommended that you uninstall your current version of SpywareBlaster before installing the new version. To do this:


1.) Open SpywareBlaster and press the "Disable All Protection" link under "Quick Tasks".
2.) Close SpywareBlaster.
3.) Go to Add/Remove Programs and uninstall the entry named "SpywareBlaster v3.5.1"
4.) Download the latest SpywareBlaster installer from the link above and run it.
5.) Enjoy the new version of SpywareBlaster

As a general rule of thumb, if it's a case of moving up to a newer version (i.e. v2.0 to 3.0; or v3.7 to 4.0), I always uninstall the old version first. If it's just a small version update (i.e. v3.7 to v3.8), it's safe to just install over the top of the existing. There can be exceptions to this of course depending on the specific software in question, but that doesn't happen to too often.

Same here. I really like the interface. It's clean and a bit larger for high-resolution screens.

Why do I get so excited when my favorite programs get a major update? I really must be a geek. Thanks for the heads-up. It looks good and the slow loading database for Firefox has been fixed.

You and me both. When I saw the subject header I had a feeling of euphoria.


I love new stuff. Service packs, out of the norm updates, new programs, updated programs, OS'es, etc..


Vista was my first new OS since being a geek. I love it.

Very cool, glad to hear it didn't go the route of SS&D and AdAware 2007, both are so much worse, meaning slow than the previous version which is a total bummer.
