Detect Spyware

Spyware is any software or malware (”malicious software”) used to spy or track your computer activity. While some spyware is legitimately and intentionally installed by parents or employers to monitor Internet activity on a computer, spyware may be installed maliciously. Often spyware may come bundled with downloads of free software or come in the form of a cookie via a website, and this spyware may track your Internet activity or may steal secret account usernames and passwords, credit card numbers, and other personal and financial information.

Because types of Spyware silently and secretly work in the background, you won’t be able to easily detect the spyware. If your computer is taking long periods to reboot or you have a slow Internet connection, these may be signs that your computer is infected with Spyware.

spyware symptom New desktop shortcuts or switched homepage. Spyware may change your Internet settings or redirect your default homepage to point to another web site. Spyware may even add new desktop shortcuts on your PC. If you want to avoid these problems, keep your computer spyware-free and remove all traces of Spyware.

spyware symptom Annoying popups on your PC. Spyware may bombard your computer with popup ads, sometimes even when you’re not signed online. Spyware may prevent regular Internet activity and track your surfing habits as well as your personal information. Remove Spyware immediately because the more traces of Spyware you have the more popups you’ll see on your computer.
