reports it back to its source. It ties up bandwidth, slows
down CPU speed and generally is a nuisance.
In its more malicious forms, it can disrupt the PC so much
that it is unusable; it can run up modem bills, it can spam
or send copies of itself to everyone in your address book
and it can download pornographic material to your PC.
The last is probably the one most likely to make everyone
stand up and take notice. Downloading porn at the office
can get you fired, downloading child porn anywhere can get
you arrested.
The only way to keep these and all the other problems
associated with spyware from infecting your life and
disrupting your activities is prevention. As the old
saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of
cure.
There are numerous programs available (both for free and
for pay) that offer protection from spyware and its related
cohorts. Most free programs remove spyware that's already
been downloaded and installed to your machine, such as Ad-

Never download anything from an unknown source. A lot of
home PC users can find their machines besieged by problems
because they downloaded something they weren't sure about
or just assumed was safe. Don't assume, be sure. You can
even check security settings for different websites you
visit. Be sure what you're downloading is from a reputable
source.
You wouldn't invite just anyone who knocked on your door
into your house; you shouldn't let any file or program into
your computer. Spyware at its best is a nuisance, and a
potentially dangerous and damaging element that can cost
you real time, and worse of all, money.
