Are you having all sorts of problems with your PC like *freezes*, error messages? OR are you getting unwanted emails, lots of irritating pop ups? Browser being hijacked?, strange programmes appearing on your desktop that you never placed there. ??

If you have been experiencing any of the above, chances are you may have SPYWARE on your computer.

For information on what spyware is, and how to diagnose and fix it, see here.
