How frustrated are you over Spyware

Posted by geeknews at 2:08 PM on August 24, 2004

I go to extremes to make sure my PC’s do not get infected by spyware and viruses. With my wife’s machine having an unexplained failure I have been triple checking the rest of the machines to make sure they are not running something their not supposed to. It is very very frustrating and at least I am not the only one that is frustrated. [Scobleizer]

    Ah, spyware. Yet another great motivator to switch to a Mac.

    My sister’s computer has so much spyware that I cannot get it off! I don’t know what it is, but I’ve never had this problem before. I ran several scans and removed hundreds of spyware results and when I restarted there was still a large ammount of it. It’s like it’s respawning or something. This is getting ridicules.
