Spyware

From USATODAY.com:

Spyware can herd users to porn and gambling Web pages, track where users go on the Internet, trigger a deluge of pop-up ads and slow PC performance.

Wake up people! Microsoft Windows, Internet Explorer, et. al. have so many security problems, this kind of crap will never go away. Stop using Microsoft products. Not to say that other software products don’t have their problems, because they do. But I can almost guarantee that if you switch away from Microsoft products you will be 95% free spyware.

Too help you see how bad spyware is on your PC, ecrosstexas will soon feature Doxdesk’s Parasite script. The idea comes from the great Mark Pilgrim of course!
