Q: What is SpyWare and how can I get rid of it?
A:
Spyware are programs that typically offered as free add on's for your
browser, but may unknowingly to you be transmitting browser habits
or even in worse cases sensitive information such as passwords to another
webs site. Some spyware can come through a browser such as Internet Explorer for windows, while other spyware is advertised as free programs that you can use on your computer.
Currently, most spy ware affects Internet Explorer for windows, but
as the popularity of other browsers increase they may become
susceptible to attack. Microsoft offers Windows Defender, but there are other offerings such as Ad-Aware by Lavasoft or ewido free edition by grisoft. Be sure to download a spyware removal tool from a reputable vendor.
