Spyware is rapidly becoming more and more of a plague to Internet users. Generally speaking Spyware is a program that acts as a Trojan Horse.
Although, unlike a virus, there programs are not intended to do your computer any harm. Rather, they are designed to watch what you are doing on your PC, gathering information about you... who you are, what your do, what products you seem to be trying to find or buy, and where you go on the Internet. They gather these statistics and either report them back to a database maintained by the writes of the Spyware, or more likely they launch PopUps as you surf.
