Posts 13,478 SpywareBlaster V3.0 Database Error I've just installed SpywareBlaster V3.0. When I run spywareblaster.exe, in "Protection->Status" it says: ! Database Error The SpywareBlaster database may be corrupted or missing. Click on the link below to run Check for Updates and download the latest database. I did as instructed and the update completed, but the warning remains. I've posted this at the Wilders Security helpsite also. I'll report back on what they come up with. This is my 2nd attempt to install and successfully use SpywareBlaster. The 1st attempt also installed successfully but wouldn't work. I made a backup of the C: drive before installing this, so I can go back to the way my software was before the installation if necessary.

Started by zemoman , Aug 07 2006 04:41 PM Please log in to reply 13 replies to this topic #1 zemoman zemoman Members 150 posts OFFLINE Location:United States, Everett, MA Local time:09:16 AM Posted 07 August 2006 - 04:41 PM I was just reading in "How to keep your computer safe" forum on bleepingcomputer. As I was reading I ran into a paragraph that said to download spywareblaster and how it stopped spyware from getting on your computer in the first place, it sounded good and I know alot of people that use it, so I went to download.com and downloaded it. Everything wentt perfect until I clicked "enable full protection", all of a sudden stopzilla detected 9 threats coming from spywareblaster, so i delted them and restarted my computer and then stopzilla detected 2 more things that were coolweb stuff so I got rid of them and removed spywareblaster off my computer. Is this program bad? Alot of people use it and are they aware of the spyware/adware on it? And last of all is it still safe to download?THANKS IN ADVANCE TO ANYONE WHO ANSWERS!
