Damn Viruses

I hate viruses and whoever invented them should be shot!
My computer is battling a virus write now. I don't even know how it go there! I don't recall opening anything bogus and I didn't put in any scandalous disks. It maybe something else possibly, I don't know a thing about computers (PC's) just learned about that.

The reason for this sudden outburst is I was reviewing Samantha Olinge's weblog and I came across her presentation on Spyware.

Samantha stated that, "Some like me was out in the dark on this subject, I never known what Spyware was. The name makes it sounds like it might be something good to download and get rid of Adware, that’s what I assumed. Amazing!
What is Spyware
1.Computer software that gathers information about a computer user and then transmits this information to an external entity without the knowledge or informed consent of the user."

Well Samantha is def. not the only one because I am also in the dark. I feel very exposed. Darn technology what's next keyboards that copy finger prints? It's really getting out of control. The amount of things that go on and I'm not even aware of them.

Like the trojan virus. Don't know how to stop it. its everywhere. Please beware!
