| Pepi MK Software |
This is another handy site to know about, since it hosts the anti-spyware tool
called Spybot Search and Destroy. It detects and removes spyware from
your computer. Spyware causes your system to behave in an unexpected manner: perhaps you have
started experiencing more frequent system crashes, or have a browser toolbar you don't remember
installing, or the advertising you receive is
suspiciously reminiscent of websites you frequent, or maybe your Internet searches get rerouted
through unexpected websites. If you suspect any untoward goings-on on your computer, this
software will track it down and get shot of it for good! Member of the Alliance of Security Analysis Professionals (ASAP). |
