SpyWare

Not as bad as a virus etc, but spyware has the abity to steal your idenity !

Most of what is termed Spyware, is on the very edge of being illegal.
That is why many "Virus Checkers" do NOT clean them by default.

Apple:

• I am surprised that most gOOgle applications have Spyware in them.
  - Especially the Picasa Client !
  

  ---

• Yes it's true, the iPhone and iPod Touch can have SpyWare on them.
  - Add cydia.i-phone-home.net to your source, then install the App called CompiledHosts.
  - Or better yet, install the deluxe version called CompiledADHosts.
  

Windos:

• Get the Security Essentials (FREE) from Microsoft NOW !!!

Others:

• Detect and Clean T0rn Rootkit on a Linux system.
