I installed the newest version of Spysweeper, and shortly after Microsoft Antispyware asked me if I wanted to block something called 'ads.centralohio.com'. I didn't know what it was and presumed it was spyware so I blocked it. The thing is, I'm wondering if it's part of the Spysweeper 4 installation. After uninstalling and reinstalling Spysweeper, the same thing happened - this time though MS Antispyware blocked it WITHOUT asking me. There seems to be no way of unblocking it aside from uninstalling/reinstalling Spysweeper with MS Antispyware switched off. This is what MS Antispyware says about it:-
"Windows Hosts File alert
Occured on: 08/06/2005 at 00:04:20
The entry ads.centralohio.com pointing to IP address 127.0.0.1 has been automatically been denied permission to be added to the Windows Hosts file. This Hosts file change was blocked based on your previous input."
Does anybody running these 2 programs together know what this is and have you encountered it during the installation of Spysweeper 4? All help much appreciated.
