can I manually add a blocked site?

Every night MSAS scans my C drive. It checks dozens of
processes and thousands of files and never finds
anything.

But whenever I run Trend Micro Housecall it finds 3 - 10
spys. Housecall tells me the spys come
from "atwola.com", "fastclick.net", "atdmt.com", etc.

I'd like to block these specific sites, and see if these
invasions stop, but MSAS tells me the only way I can
block an internet URL is by responding to a Security
Agent, and they never seem to pop up.

Is there any way to add a URL to the Blocked Site list?
Failing that, is there some explanation for the spyware
evading MSAS?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Paul

First of all, I believe they are cookies and MSAS doesn't check cookies
because they are not dangerous. If you have WinXP SP2 you can have IE block
cookies or only third party cookies or only specific cookies. Actually, on
any IE6 see the Privacy tab on Internet Options.
