Beware of Spyware

Written on April 10, 2008 by editor

A spyware is computer software that is classified as privacy-invasive. This is installed covertly on a personal computer. Once installed, it can monitor the user’s behavior, collect personal information like surfing habits and sites that visited. It can interfere with user control of the computer such as installing additional software, redirecting Web browser activity, accessing websites blindly that will cause more harmful viruses, or diverting advertising revenue to a third party. It can change computer settings, resulting in slow connection speeds, different home pages, and loss of Internet or other programs.
