OK,,,before i begin,,here are my stats.

dell dimension 2400
windows xp home sp3

avast antivirus free
spybot search and distroy
spware blaster.

ad-aware

i always keep my windows updated.
the listed protection is the most recent version.
they are always updated.

some how i think maybe or maybe not spybot search and distroy is interfering with enabling protection against this one cookie in spware blaster,,so i think.

spware blaster wont enable protection against:
(cool websearch / 5starvideo.com)

when i click enable all protection it seems to do just that.
but when i go to re-open spyware blaster that one "restricted site" item shows up not blocked in the list.

i just noticed this today when i updated.

i just downloaded cw shredder,,,it found nothing,,,so I'm clean there.
--
it does this when i bring up spybot search and distroy first
and then i close that one
then i bring up spyware blaster and thats when i have to re-enble protection on that one item in the restricted site list,,, .
i know its messing up spyware blaster some how,,,i have yet to figure out how.

and yes i just updated both programs today.
