WARNING for SPYWARE!
« on: October 10, 2001, 01:59:38 PM »
I want to warn you guys about some spyware products..
These so called "spyware" programs can also be cookies..

Spyware is spying on you.. It sees what you do and what passwords you got..
It then sends this information over the internet..

Here is a good program that removes spyware files..
AD-Aware

Some known spyware programs.. (They can either install them, or is one itself..)
KaZaA - Music program just like Napster
CuteFTP
Gator
3D Frog Man Demo
3D-FTP

um.. Come to think of it there are 939 known spyware files, and I cant list them all..

BTW.. I recommend you search or comp every time your finished surfing.. Chances are that some WebPages (or Ads) have installed a spy-cookie on your comp..
(Ive sofar had 26 spyware files on my computer.. Thats 26 files in 2 days!)

How do I know that what I\'m downloading isn\'t YOUR spyware program, fastson!? I\'m on to you, you evil mastermind... ;)  

Thanks for the advice by the way.

I bet when the neanderthal kids would make a snowman, someone would always end up saying, \"Don\'t forget the thick, heavy brows.\" Then they would all get embarrassed because they remembered they had the big hunky brows too, and they\'d get mad and eat the snowman.

hmmm, I didn\'t know about KaZaA being spy ware, I guess it\'s on to Morpheus for me.

Morpheus uses the same servers as KaZaA, so does Grokster.
