As Daffy Duck would say: "D-E-E-SPPTH-ICABLE!!" The problem of 'spyware' -- programs which download/install themselves on your computer and report back on your surfing habits quite predictably led to the development of spyware killers. Now, just as predictably, reports are filtering in that a number of spyware killers in fact function as spyware themselves.
Now all this is infuriating enough, and a number of people are as mad as hell and not going to take it any more, but there is an additional consideration: lots of spyware doesn't just fink on you, it also slows down your computer and makes it more likely to crash.
The article discusses the development of spyware problems, the attempt to reduce/eliminate such parasitic software, and what actions are being taken by those victimized what is clearly unfair and deceptive practices.
Because many in the educational environment depend on computers but have little comprehension of their internal workings, effective education about spyware is a basic requirement, to which the indexed article (with links to related information) can provide substantial assistance.
