Is Your Computer Unusually Slow?

  • Spyware- is software that helps a third-party (i.e. a marketing company) gather information about a person or persons without the knowledge or consent of the individual. These small programs often quietly install themselves when you install certain other programs (such as peer to peer file sharing programs). Spyware applications report to central location information such as websites you have visited in an effort to gain information about you usually for the purpose of sale.
  • Adware- Very similar to Spyware, is software that installs using methods close to Spyware and causes banner adds to pop up while you do everyday tasks such as browse the web. Again, this is done without the user's knowledge or permission.
  • With the increased popularity of cookies on WebPages and peer to peer file sharing programs, Spyware and Adware have become a common nuisance and invasion of privacy. These types of software have been proven to cause unusually high bandwidth consumption, as well as causing other types of operating system problems.
