"I installed SpywareBlaster after reading your comments recently. It found an item, (C:\ProgramFiles\DiallerProgram:BTVI) that I was unaware of. Quarantined and Deleted it"

maybe you're thinking of another program, jw. SpywareBlaster does not quarantine and delete items. per the readme file...

"SpywareBlaster doesn't scan and clean for spyware - it prevents it from ever being installed."

i wouldn't be surprised if you are referring to Spybot.

"Connected to cable, are we safe from phone spyware not being connected to phones?"

i'd say yes. cable modems operate without phone lines, with the exception of "one-way" cable modems, which use analog upstream and cable downstream. i used to run one. weird set up, but quite a bit better than straight dial up service.
