    Spyware is a type of malware (malicious software) installed on computers that collects information about users without their knowledge. The presence of spyware is typically hidden from the user and can be difficult to detect. Typically, spyware is secretly installed on the user's personal computer.

    Spyware is malicious software that can hijack and cripple your computer. It has been known to masquerade as a prize-notification pop-up window, and is one method of online identity theft and virus spreading.
