Inside Spyware
Overview
Your computer, or those of the people in the organization, is possibly being used to send spam, harvest e-mail addresses for spam, and make purchases using stolen credit cards or take part in a Denial of Service (DoS) attack, where an army of computers shuts down a Web site by flooding its servers with HTTP requests. EarthLink's SpyAudit program, which scanned 1,062,756 PCs, found 29.5 million instances of spyware, an average of nearly 28 spyware items per computer. Together with programs called spyware, adware and viruses, trojans are a part of a group collectively known as "Malware" or "Pestware." While the majority of such programs are pests and nothing more, they have the potential to be quite nasty.
