What is spyware and adware?
It is short for advertising supported software and allows its publishers to snoop on a people's internet activity, invade their your privacy, and flood their computer with those horrible popups.

Why is it important to detect and remove spyware and adware?

• Loss of privacy
• Annoying pop-ups that do not go away.
• A spyware program such as a dialer can make long distance calls from a user's computer without their knowledge and consent and then that person receives a huge phone bill.
• In severe cases, a person's sensitive and confidential information such as a Social Security number or an online banking password can be recorded through a spyware program such as a keylogger and then subsequently misused...exposing that person to identity theft, unauthorized use of their bank account or credit card and many other problems.

When a computer is new, it is free of spyware...however that usually does not last very long as spyware can even be installed in a computer by visiting websites.

How to protect against spyware:

• Only download from trustworthy Internet sites and avoid dubious sites.
• Pay close attention to the messages that appear when installing programs. Some spyware programs display messages asking for your consent to install the application. Read their agreements carefully as well.
