Remove spyware that is running on your PC. Numerous applications and web pages install spyware without your knowledge or permission. Spyware collects and disseminates information about those using them. They can track your surfing habits, abuse your Internet connection by sending this data to a third party, profile your shopping preferences, hijack your browser start page or pages, alter important system files, and can do this without your knowledge or permission.
