The most frustrating part of having Spyware on your computer is the sheer feeling of helplessness that is invoked. Your computer slows down, it no longer does what you instructed it to, it seems to have a mind of its own. You effectively have lost control of your computer. Spyware (also referred to as Adware or Malware) is software that is installed on your computer without your consent. Spyware software monitors or controls your computer use. It may be used to send you pop-up ads, redirect your computer to websites, monitor your Internet surfing, or record your keystrokes, which, in turn, could lead to identity theft.

Who among us wants to fork out their hard earned money for a great top of the line satellite TV system, when they can snag one for free from the nice folks at DirecTV? You dont have to actually steal it from them, but it is almost the same as stealing it when it costs you absolutely nothing to get one from them, when you join their family of TV viewers.
Its not a cheap off brand unit either. Its a top of the line Hughes system that they drop in your lap and it also comes with free installation in up to four rooms in your home or business. Do you remember what your cable service provider charged you for installation when they put the screws to you?

It’s not uncommon for software to cost more than the hardware of the computer it is installed on. In fact with hardware prices falling, it will soon become a trend for the software on a computer to cost more than the hardware. The problem with using freeware software and open source operating systems is that they do not support main stream products like Photoshop or Microsoft Office.
Although some corporations have started using open source operating systems to reduce operating costs of their organizations, the problem is that open source software is no where as friendly as commercial software. A good example is Linux, although Linux is free to use but the dominance of Windows is undeniable because of its ease of use and the wide variety of software Windows supports.
