What are Computer Viruses?
Computer viruses are small software programs that are designed to interfere with computer operation. A virus might corrupt or delete data on your computer, use your e-mail program to spread itself to other computers, or even erase everything on your hard disk. To help avoid viruses, it’s essential that you keep your computer current with the latest updates and that you follow a few basic rules when you surfing the Internet.
What is Computer Spyware?
Spyware is any software that covertly gathers user information
through the user’s Internet connection without his or her knowledge, usually for advertising purposes. Once installed, the spyware monitors user activity on the Internet and transmits that information in the background to someone else. Spyware can also gather information about e-mail addresses, passwords and credit card information.
