SpywareBlaster and SUPERAntispyware both have the option to restrict IE's homepage from being change but do they work well together?

SpywareBlaster:
Tools - Misc IE. Settings - IE Restrictions
SUPERAnti-Spyware:
Preferences - Hi-Jack Protection - Home Page Protection

*I am a new user of SUPERAntiSpyware :(

I don't know off hand, however some anti-spyware may or will detect the restricted changing of the homepage as a hijack, not that some malware couldn't change it anyways even if locked.
Complexity of incoherent design.

Work OK together here. Win XP home 32 bit.

Have had both for years, never a conflict. Also use Spywareguard. I just changed my home page, and both Spywareguard and SAS caught the change and required confirmation. No warning from Spywareblaster, not sure why.

Spywareguard is not passive, and is said to conflict with Spybot's TeaTimer. I think it runs a bit heavy, and other members here maintain that it is obsolete.
The SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-)
