Spywareblaster sets kill bits to stop the install of activeX controls, it does not run like your AV. It does not remove bad things like Spybot s&d or ad-aware do.
Spywareguard runs like your AV and will stop browser hijacks and installs of known bad controls. It also will not remove bad things already installed.
ie-spyad will put a list of 4000+ websites in your restricted sites list so that your bowser can't even visit them. It also has an optional 950 adult sites to restrict as well.

Try that site for malware free p2p programs.
Also :-
Follow the link below to my site, malware section, and install spywareblaster and spywareguard from the links.
Also ie-spyad from here
With all those active you will be safer, do update them periodically.

thanks for responding, chris.
i have the following on my system:
Zone Alarm firewall
Norton 2203 Antivirus
AdaAware 6.0 (updated weekly)
Spybot S&D (updated weekly)
CookieJar
Spyblaster
which lead me to this question: is Spyblaster kinda like Norton where it runs in the background and monitor for malwares not unlike Norton, or do i have to run it manually to check for malwares???

Thanks, but no why will I allow the registry to be edited with data from site I don't not of. Basically what you are saying is Eric L. Howes decides what you can/can not see and he is answerable to no one. "1984"

msgale, you are WAY off base here. IE-SPYAD does NOT prevent a person from going to a listed site. It just prevents bad cookies from loading and bad scripts from running.
From the Web site:

Please note that IE-SPYAD is not an ad blocker. It will not block standard banner ads in Internet Explorer. This Restricted sites lists known advertisers and malware pushers will do, however, is:
back via "drive-by-downloads";
Internet Explorer settings;
be employed to push obnoxious advertising on you and
compromise your privacy and security;
travels around the Internet;
screen and force unwanted advertising on you.
