So what is it...?
Most normal spyware software scans your computer and then removes the spyware after it has already infested your system. Spyware Blaster is a program the blocks spyware before it gets on your computer. There are two things about this program that make it even better:
- It does not run in the background so it takes up no memory!
- Its completely free for the following:
- Individuals (for personal and educational use)
- Public libraries
- Registered charities
- Elementary or secondary schools
- Degree-granting undergraduate and post-graduate community colleges, colleges, and universities
It is avaliable for free at the authors website and I have provided a link to it here
