Spyware Gets Even Worse
kuro5hin.org has a good little piece about spyware, software that piggy-backs on other programs and installs on your computer with them, often without telling you. One particularly nasty one is VX2 which for a while installed was installed with AudioGalaxy.
Wired also has a
good article today, which led me to
Ad-Aware, a great application that will detect spyware on your system and remove it.
