While researching some other things I ran across a program called "SpyBlocker" which, while seeming quite energetic in the blocking collection of data via webbugs, etc., somehow makes me sit and scratch my head. Most of the blocking seems to take place by using the hosts file to direct most ad fetches and cookie posts to 127.0.0.1

Does anyone have any real experience with the program? Can you review it?

Good and bad experiences would be of interest.

TIA.
