What is a spyware?
Spyware is not considered viruses because, in general, he seeks to virus programs (but only infects the computer with more or less aware of the user) or to attack other computers (ex. to spread via e mail). He is considered a threat to privacy.
Spyware is the name given to a category of software, usually attached to free software (games, free programs changed files, pornographic chat programs, etc…) Which is used to collect marketing data (by analyzing what search sites user, for example: fashion, shoes, tennis clubs, etc.) and to submit any ads that user according to excerpts of marketing spyware.

First I want to say what a trojan virus is. The hackers who make this king of viruses, they make it to take control of your computer and to perform operations. The type of operations that a hacker can perform is limited by user privileges on the target computer system and the design of the trojan horse itself. When the hacker has control over the computer, his can delete files or upload files or install software’s or can use your computer as a part of botnet and so on. These king of operations are illegal’s and you should keep your computer under control with software’s that can blocked these trojans viruses. You can have control on your computers with antivirus software’s that can scan your computer and detect if the computer is infected or not.
Some folks prefer to remove trojan virus for free. I myself am a big fan of freeware tools, but there’s a big problem here. Some developers of scam software promote their products as free trojan virus removers, to entice web surfers into downloading and installing them. However, such free trojan removers are often more dangerous than trojans. Even scanning of executable files by antivirus programs may show them as clean. This is yet another reason why I advise to make some research before downloading and installing any software that promises to help to remove trojan virus.
In other article I make a list with free antivirus software that you can find on the Internet and you can scan your computer to detect and fix the viruses, trojans and so on. As I said above, is important to read about what can do the antivirus software’s before to use it.
Computer viruses are self-executing, replicating programs written specifically to change the way a machine works, without the knowledge or permission of the operator/owner. Viruses are so called because they behave in a similar way to biological viruses. Just as biological viruses pass from person to person, replicating themselves as they go, computer viruses pass from computer to computer. Unlike most biological viruses, however – computer viruses are entirely man made.
Viruses can impair and seriously damage your computer by, amongst other things; executing random text, audio and video messages, draining memory, deleting files, corrupting programs – even reformatting (or erasing the contents of) your hard disk. At best, the less destructive viruses are annoying and will slow the infected machine up (because of the drain on memory), often resulting in crashes and other unpredictable behaviors which can ultimately result in loss of data.
I want to say that the programs antivirus which is described in this article are described in random order. In time I used most of these software antivirus tools and I can say that I have helped in repairing the problems with viruses, trojans and spyware. The most important think that you can use a free online scanning tools is the money (you can use the antivirus tools without you buying) and because we have the privilege to choose which of these you will use. In this article I will describe five of free antivirus tools and I’m sure that on the Internet are more than five free antivirus tools. In time I will update this article with more antivirus tools which can use free online.
