NCSA - Spyware Alert   Print

<< back to Virus Alerts

According to the National Cyber Security Alliance, spyware infests more than 90 percent of all PCs. This fast-growing Internet threat is also one of the least obtrusive; spyware silently bypasses firewalls and anti-virus software, affecting computer performance and introducing security risks, often unbeknownst to the user.

 

Spyware is showing up more often recently with out your knowledge. Users should take note when downloading free software off the internet. Mostly through games and free music, but more noticeably through programs that claim to help block or remove the viruses and spyware. To prevent this from happening to you, do a little research and know what your are downloading. To help you, visit the Norton Antivirus or MacAfee's web sites and read search on any file before you down load them.
