Spyware and Adware - where to get it and how to use it
Peyton Randulf
Have you ever wondered what spyware and adware are? Have you then wondered where you can get them? We'll answer both those questions.
What is Spyware?
Spyware applications are programs that hide on your computer without your direct knowledge. Spyware programs allow hackers and advertising companies to track your every move, both on-line and even when you work off-line. They can track the websites you visit, the items that you buy online, the emails you send and receive, and your Instant Message dialog. Perhaps worst of all they can even record your credit card number, personal identification numbers, and all of your passwords. It even gets worse... if you use dial-up to connect to the internet then spyware can be used to bill 900 numbers to your phone bill. This is just a short list of the harm that spyware can cause.
What is Adware?
Adware applications are installed onto your computer by internet advertising companies. Adware allows them to bury you with pop-up ad after pop-up ad all day long. Have you ever noticed a strange icon on your desktop or start menu and wondered where it came from? Have you ever logged on to the Internet and found that your home page has been switched? Are there strange search bars on every page you visit? These are all adware programs. Adware programs can place icons almost anywhere on your computer. Adware programs can change your home page whenever they wish, and Adware can control your Google search results so you see the results that they want you to see.
