SpyBot 1.3 - Browser pages question in Security http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r12239488 en Sat, 05 Dec 2009 11:32:13 EDT Sat, 05 Dec 2009 11:32:13 EDT Re: SpyBot 1.3 - Browser pages question http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12239644 Bubba : If your using Spybot's Immunize function....it adds Excite to IE's per site cookie handling function....CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\P3P\History\excite.com. I would suggest you go into IE's Tools\Internet Options\Privacy tab\....down at the bottom in the Web Sites area select Edit button. You can then either remove or select Allow for Excite's cookie. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12239644 Wed, 29 Dec 2004 09:29:42 EDT Re: SpyBot 1.3 - Browser pages question http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12239609 atangel : Not sure you can. It isn't blocking Excite (OK, it isn't supposed to be blocking), it issupposed to be blocking what Excite is trying to download. Did you try the block silent option first?

Now as to why it is blocking the whole page ????????? Perhaps someone else here can answer.

Just for reference, What else is installed on your system? IE-SPYAD? etc? OS, browser version, etc.

How can remove Excite from the list and still have blocking enabled?

Excite is not in my Hosts file.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12239577 Wed, 29 Dec 2004 09:16:53 EDT Re: SpyBot 1.3 - Browser pages question http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12239535 Reverend Ike : Do you have a Hosts file that includes any excite.com entries? If so, you might try disabling those entries temporarily and see if that allows your homepage to download properly.

I agree with Atangel - a site which needs to be blocked by Spybot S&D, and which has related servers listed in a popular Hosts file, does not seem to be a particularly good choice for a homepage, IMHO ...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12239535 Wed, 29 Dec 2004 09:07:36 EDT Re: SpyBot 1.3 - Browser pages question http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12239525 atangel : You can't get there at all? Are you clicking OK with each prompt? (just tried it)

It doesn't block the site as much as block things that site is trying to download (btw, that should tell you something about Excite, the fact that SpyBot S&D blocks a half dozen downloads).

Immunize Section > Download Blocker Aread > set "Block all pages silently.

OR just disable it in the same place. Mind you, the protection will be turned off.

Have you looked into using Spywareblaster (free, from »www.javacoolsoftware.com ) to compliment Spybot's immunize feature?

Or use Firefox.
