What is the difference between viruses and Spyware?
Viruses are designed to cripple your machine. The virus is normally very noticeable. Spyware programs are designed to steal a person’s information ranging from credit card numbers to social security numbers. Spyware tends to be harder to spot. Some signs that you might have Spyware are unwanted pop-ups or suggestions to buy anti-virus and/or Spyware protection. In many cases your computer could start running slower.
