Blocked Sites

Hi... Is there a way to make Spybot inform you that it has blocked you from trying to get on the site you're trying to go on? I tried to go to excite.com but it wouldn't load, and it took me ages to figure out it was because Spybot had blocked it.
hello

When the SDHelper (IE plugin) blocks something, it can tell you. Just use the "Spybot-S&D Configuration" menu item in the Tools menu of IE.

Other blocks (immunization: "Windows: Hosts file") would operate through the hosts file, in which case a notification isn't possible.

But blocking excite.com totally doesn't look like something it should do imho. Maybe it was just blocking the Excite cookie?

God, I can't believe I didn't notice that there :laugh:

Sorted now, thanks. :bigthumb:
