What Spyware Is and How to Block It
By Peyton Randulf
Perhaps you are wondering what spyware and adware are. Many folks hear about one or both and have that question. We'll answer that and give you some tools to rid yourself of both.
Spyware and adware are files that are installed on your computer, even if you don't want them, without you even knowing it. They allow companies to monitor your internet browsing patterns, to see what you purchase and even allow companies to inundate you with those annoying "pop up" ads. If you've downloaded some music, files or documents and suddenly started seeing annoying ads popping up on your screen, you could definitely be infected with spyware or adware.
Stop the chaos caused by installed adware and spyware. Protect your privacy and your PC. Try a program like Spyware Remover that will scan your PC for free and then let you know if you have any spyware programs infecting your computer.
