Hi all -

IE-Spyad has recently changed from a batch file install to using a free Internet Explorer zone management utility available from funkytoad, ZonedOut.

Here's a rough draft. My cropping of images is a bit untidy, and I think ultimately it may be better to change the default unzip location of ie-spyad_zo.exe to the same directory as ZonedOut, or vice versa, (indicated below) as ZonedOut will always open to it's own directory. Or, perhaps that opens things up to more difficulty, and the user will get lost. So perhaps leaving it like below is best.

Let me know what you think.

-------------------------------------------


IE-Spyad places more than 4000 dubious websites and domains in the IE Restricted list. This severely impairs attempts to infect your system.

To use the IE-SPYAD for ZonedOut "Restricted sites" lists you must also download ZonedOut by funkytoad, a free Internet Explorer zone management utility:



Download the self-extracting exe version of IE-Spyad:

http://www.spywarewarrior.com/uiuc/res/ie-spyad_zo.exe

Double click on the file you just saved. It will appear like this:



Click on the unzip button. The files will be extracted to C:\iespyad_zo by default.

Download ZonedOut from the author's site (link below), and extract to a location you can easily find. (or, extract directly to C:\iespyad_zo)

http://www.funkytoad.com/content/view/15/33/

Doubleclick on ZonedOut.exe to run it.

Select Menu>Import/Export Sites>Import from File



Browse to C:\iespyad_zo folder, using the "Up one level" button:



Select ie-ads.txt



A message box will appear, click OK.





Once ZonedOut has checked for failures, it will let you know that it's done.



Close ZonedOut. That's it.

There are other imports you can do from within the ie-spyad_zo folder. Take time and review the readme file. The process is the same.

Would like it if some of you would use these instructions, and tell me which way you think works best, along with any other critiquing.

Cheers!
