Fight back against spyware

You probably know by now that using a computer can be hazardous to your privacy, especially if you use your system online. But your privacy can be compromised even if you never link to a network. Sure, websites track your browsing habits with ads, cookies and web bugs, and they sell your personal information to marketers. Also, spyware and adware install on your PC by piggy-backing onto file-sharing utilities and other free software downloads.

While testing various antispyware utilities  last September, I discovered that two otherwise top-notch spy catchers,Lavasofts Ad-aware and PepiMK Software Spybot Search & Destroy, weren' particularly good at finding the keyloggers that I had running in stealth mode on my test PC. Two other programs PestPatrols PestPatrol and Webroots Spy Sweeper were better, but still hit-or-miss. 
While most of those programs  both the keyloggers and the antispyware utilities have been updated since my tests, one thing is undoubtedly still true: the more anti-spy tools you employ, the better your chances of detecting a stealth keylogger. Everyone who connects to the internet should install and use both Ad-aware and Spybot as a matter of course. To do a more thorough scan, add PestPatrol and Spy Sweeper to your counter-espionage arsenal. Both programs are available in trial versions
