XoftSpy SE Review

Score: 4.5/5 

Introduction

Spyware is one of the most annoying problems that many computer users face today. The problem is that spyware is almost impossible to steer clear from, since the entire Internet landscape is littered with websites that have no ethical qualms about dishing it out to unsuspecting web surfers. A website could come across as seemingly innocuous when in fact it is actually a bastion for spyware.

Spyware is basically a tiny computer program that manages to get downloaded onto your computer through certain websites, through certain web browsers. You would have no idea that it is being loaded onto your computer, as it doesn’t do anything to harm your computer, the way a virus would.

Instead, spyware, as the term implies, uses stealth tactics to load itself onto your computer and literally “spy” on you. It will send information back to a host machine on the Internet about your browsing activities and about certain information that it can access on your hard drive.

Spyware is notorious for being a resource hog as well, as it will typically slow your system’s performance down, cause it to crash or freeze up, and even in many cases, start displaying annoying pop-ups on your screen at random intervals.

Spyware is difficult to detect and eliminate, because it alters the Windows registry in order to keep itself arrive and running. So even if you delete the offending files, there are registry settings it will have altered, that will allow it to re-spawn new instances of itself.
