Do You Have Bugs?
Do you know what Spyware is and what it does? It is software that is installed in a computer without the user's knowledge and transmits information about the user's computer activities over the Internet. It takes information about a person without their knowledge or informed consent and reports such data back to a third party. Its main purpose is to collect information about where you have surfed on the Internet and what you buy online. It also displays popup ads in response to clicks of your mouse. This is annoying enough but spyware can cause much more damage than that. Spyware earned its name because it “spies” on you and then sends reports back to someone without informing you of this activity. There are a lot of free software programs to get read of these nasty little bugs. Do a Google search for spyware and a lot of information will come up to help you
