Spyware Blaster does this, as well as back up your settings. This
is a prevention tool to be installed on a clean system.

the new MS anti-spyware tool can keep a sentry lookout on your browser
settings, which is a part of the puzzle. i don't know if other spyware
tools do this, too, but two others i use (spybot search and destroy and
ad-aware) don't seem to, at least in the versions i've been using for the
past 6 mos.

hope this helps,
