First off, don't try to use _Spam Blaster_. I was initially a beta-tester
and _SB_ had many problems that were never resolved. More importantly,
_Goo Software_, makers of _Spam Blaster_, has closed its doors due to
supposed legal action over their use of the name _Blaster_. So, at least
for the time being, _Spam Blaster_ is an "orphan".

The good news is that the upgrade from O/S 7.5->7.5.3->7.5.5 is FREE! What
you need are the updaters from the Apple Support Site. As I recall you
must first go to 7.5.3 and then to 7.5.5. If you need further help please
conytact me "straight away". 


g'day
