Protect yourself from spyware with K7 TotalSecurity.

Spyware is an increasing concern for home users and businesses alike, with malicious software having extremely serious implications for the security of your PC and any information recorded on it.

Spyware, a form of adware, is malicious software which is often installed discreetly on a PC without the user’s knowledge or authorization and is used to pass on information about a user’s activity to a range of third parties, often for the purpose of advertising.

Spyware monitors your computer activity, such as the websites that you visit, what you search for in search engines and even the keystrokes that you make on your keyboard, and forwards this information on to various people and organizations. Advertisers typically use this data for the purpose of targeted advertising, promoting products that they believe you may be interested in based on your previous browsing habits.

However, increasingly sophisticated versions of spyware are now being used to record more personal details, including passwords, security codes, credit card numbers and user ID’s, exposing the user to a number of security issues, including fraud and identity theft.

Whilst spyware is often downloaded unwittingly from the internet, spyware can infect your PC from a number of sources, with forms of spyware being found on seemingly trustworthy sources including CD-ROM based software and music CD’s, whilst many ISP’s (Internet Service Providers) also endorse versions of spyware for advertising purposes.

This means that even experienced users are potential targets of a spyware attack, making a leading spyware protection system an essential part of any PC.
