I have been seeing a lot of conflicting information in
regards to spyware. I recently downloaded Spybot Search &
Destroy version 2.1 to try and get rid of a trojan horse.
It seemed to have worked although I am concerned that
people state that Spyware can provide 3rd parties with my
internet usage information and more concerning details I
transmit over the net, does anyone have a definative
answers to whether downloaded spyware like SpyBot can do
the above.
All help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!
