<font color="lightblue">It happens at every site I go to when I use it:
Tables don`t display properly, images time out, refreshing doesn`t renew my mailbox...

My computer must be allergic to it :( </font>

Spyware is programs that send information about your computer to other places without your permission. Gator and Commet Cursor are two common examples; as are most peer to peer file sharing utilities.

Spyware is responsible for ALOT of things; mainly your being added to infinite mailing lists. And it can come with anything you download; especially freeware: the companies collect your information, and sell it: freeware is very rarely completely free :(

I use ad-aware to pick it up, and get rid of it: I changed from hotmail for a reason; and I don`t want to have to change again. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Where do you get ad-aware?

Dundee Slaytern 09-21-2002 08:06 AM

I use Panicware. Just remember to hold down the Ctrl key when you need to see Java Popup Windows.

It works properly, and adaware doesn`t think it`s spyware [img]smile.gif[/img]
