A number of products are now available for defeating and removing the rising number of adware and spyware programs, like eZula, TopText, Gator and WhenU.
Spyware programs, which often install themselves without the users knowledge, can bomb web users with pop-up ads, crash computers, track surfing
habits and steal affiliate revenues
from websites by rewriting affiliate code. Some of the most malicious spyware programs can even steal credit card information, data and passwords.
Unfortunately the number of spyware programs continue to rise while websurfers continue to be unaware
of them and the harm they can cause.
SpyCop has found that over 350 spyware products are currently being actively distributed.
