spyware collects information about things you do with your computer.. like what sites you visit etc. and send the information to someone who cares... for marketing purposes

Well, they need to get paid somehow don't they? I only use Soulseek and WinMX now. Do I need to remove somthing special to remove the "spyware"?

Kazaa won't even run if you remove the spyware part of it. I've known about the spyware for a while but i personaly don't care. The trade off is worth it for me. I get free movies, programs and music and they get my surfing and downloading habits. They now know my dark little secret, I spend 23 1/2 hours a day dowloading internet porn.

I don't really care about the spyware. So now they know what MP3s I have, and that I have lebian dildo porn on my hard drive... oh well.

thanks for the links marlowe and nhiiq by the way... will using that adware program that finds and gets rid of 'spyware' warn you if getting rid of the spy ware will prevent certain programs from functioning? or is it up to you to figure out which of your programs it could interfere with?
