The spyware is not that bad, all it does it give them some of your surfing habbit, like what website you visit and such. Nothing that will blow up your computer.

But get kazaalite if you can, and don't delete the dummy sll kazaalite install.

If you find that during fps games you have ping problems, often it is because of spyware hogging your bandwidth.

Also now spyware can USE your computers processor. So in effect your computer is being used to process data all the time.

Just delete everything, if something installs spyware on your computer, the program isnt worth the risk.

The latest KaZaaLite have the damn spyware in it to so as i have say before remove it, and the thing the spyware do is to check all your movments on the net and it also send information about your movments to tons of companys that again send you popups and spam mail to you so be careful with that program!
