Hi Doug,
Awhile back I ran pest patrols online scan it found xxxtoolbar.com and pointed to the domain section in the registry as in Nick's post, I deleted it.The next time I opened up spywareblaster it showed 1 protection disabled "xxxtoolber.com I enabled it and reran pest patrol and their it was again. That is why I believe it is part of the immunize funtion of this program.
Nick are you using these?
