Spyware - Identification and Defense

Overview Every day millions of computers connect to the Internet and the number increases each day. More and more users are opting for cable or DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) "always on" Internet connections. Because these connections are "always on" our computers are open to attack from a variety of sources, i.e. hackers, Trojan horses, worms, viruses and spyware. There are tools commercially available as well as available on the Internet. Some of these tools are even free for use.
