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. :rolleyes:
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:
