Spyware Can Damage Your Computer & Your Business
      It can Damage Your Credibility

It's not a Virus... What's the Big Deal?

Left untreated, spyware, malware, and trojans can often do much more damage to your computer, your business, and your credibility than a virus. While viruses were originally (and usually still do) infect and harm your own system, spyware is usually design to use your computer to spread to other users and systems. Here are some of the other activities that can take place:

What can Spyware Do?
Turn your system into a 'drone' using it to send information to other users. This information can include credit cards, passwords, pornography, spyware. All without your consent or knowledge.

Allow full record of your Internet activity.
Can log every keystroke you make on your computer, including recording websites you have visited, credit card, social security information, financial information, username/passwords, login verification information, personal chat logs.
Can add/alter sites in your browser “Favorites” folder, even adding pages to your histories list that you did not visit
Redirect and control your browser and search engines "searches"
Control your computer even when your browser is closed!
Allow hackers full access of your hard drive and sometimes even network (including Email addresses on all drives)
Allow hackers power to take over your computer without your knowledge to send spyware to other computers (zombie)
Fill your computer with popup windows even when you are not working online.


So, how do I know if I have spyware???
