| "Be Aware of Ads and Spy-Ware on your computer" | TOOLS |
|
Is your computer infected with Advertising and Spy-Ware? It could be if you have ads popping up while you are surfing the internet or your browser suddenly has a toolbar that links to sites you would rather not visit like shopping or adult sites. Programs can be installed to your computer in a sneaky manner when you are trying to install "free" software or visit certain websites. Cookies can be used to track your shopping habits and web browsing habits. Lavasoft Software makes some programs that help rid your computer of Ad-Ware (programs that generate advertising) and Spy-Ware (programs that send information about you to third parties). On their website, they have a downloadable version for free use too. |
