Pleh, Said Prof. Backwards, MANAGED WEBSITES I've wiped all my blocked ones out!

Dear Folks
Well, my "title" tells the story. I've acidentally (while trying to *add* Major Geeks to my Accepted sites for cookies) wiped out all my Blocked websites in the I-net 6 explorer "Options" section. U know, Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Sites -- Managed Websites --> Domain section. Gone. All gone. Still have my NIS & NAV + whatever protection windows provides me. Also SpyBot & AdAware.
But I didn't "mange" anything at all. How those blocked sites got there...uh...no idea. Big DUH. Yup. But am I attack prone? (Pleeze don't attack me!) And is there anything I can do or will it just take care of itself.

I recall the portion of SpyBot that blocks lousy sites automatically. But any other help would be *greatly* appreciated. Even a reassurance and a soulful pat on the shoulder would help.

Sincerely, Staghart

Hi

Those blocked sites in that Provacy setting will have been added by either SPybot which you have or Spywareblaster, they aid in stopping any nasty activex or other known nasty sites from loading in IE.

To get them back, off hand and not knowing Spybots options, is I would re-install Spybot S&D and those should be re-added again ( yes you will likely have an update to get for Spybot once reinstalled )

You must have accidently clicked "remove all" by mistake, things like this can happen, we all do it on occasion.
