Spyware

Spyware is software that secretly eavesdrops on infected machines, reporting everything back to the fraudster. For example, a keystroke logger reads the keystrokes you enter on your keyboard, to capture passwords and private information.

Be wary - spyware can get onto your systems through emails, infected websites, over your network or through portable hard drives (and other storage devices) attached to your computer.

Many anti-virus packages now come with built-in protection against spyware.
