I just noticed the other day that closing Firefox causes some of the
Protection of SpywareBlaster for Mozilla Firefox to become disabled.
To correct this problem, I opened FF and selected
Tools,Options,Privacy,Settings and then unchecked the box next to Site
Preferences and then OK.
If you use FF and SpywareBlaster and have FF clear your history when you
close it, you might want to check this out.

You might want to post your findings as an FYI to the Spyware Blaster Forum ?

Actually that is where I picked up the solution.
I should have stated that in my original post.

Strange, I had it in 3.5.2.
The Site Prefrences was on the bottom left and the top of the box was titled
"Settings for Clearing History".
If you don't have FF set to clear your history when you exit FF, perhaps it
won't show.
