I never used Spyblaster. Is it any good? I use Adaware and Spybot.

If you take a look at SpyBot over in the Immunize section you will see that they recommend that you also use SpywareBlaster. The ideal behind SpywareBlaster is to help prevent the installation of this crap before it gets installed so you will will not need to remove it with Adaware or SpyBot. :) The new version since 3.0 came out also includes some tracking cookie protection for Mozilla and FireFox as well as ActiveX protection for IE and Restricted sites protection like you find in IE-SPYAD.

Bottom line I highly recommend the program.
