Spyware is a very strong threat to anyone who uses the internet. It is malicious. It takes away your privacy. Yes it watches where you go on the web and other personal information too. That is the why the word spy is used. Spyware is spying. It is not easy to recognize or to get rid of once it is found. Some computers are never the same after they get spyware. I heard of lots of stories where people lost all kinds of important things on the computers.
Prevention does help by having an Anti- Spyware program on your computer. However there are new threats constantly so keep your software up to date.
Some software programs for Anti Spyware can be confusing to use. I noted in a previous blog how some do not work with your computer or other software so I will not go over that again right now. I would like to make sure people do not think they are alone with dealing with Spyware.
I have banged my head up against a wall thinking what did I or didn’t I do this time when I see spyware pop up with a search my spyware performs. It is just going to happen. Knowing your Anti- Spyware program is updated and working helps. I do get excited when I see spyware caught and destroyed. Pushing the key to say yes delete feels powerful. But I will not forget how hitting my keys did nothing to help as weeks went by trying to fix the computer after spyware invaded. Of course prior to me knowing to protect and update.
Do you have a horror story you want to share? A warning you can give to others? Or a story that reminds us despite the people who create these malicious programs there are many people who are kind and willing to help too.
The word “Kind” is not used enough anymore. I think I will start using it more.
