I red that when you use Google, you get Google spy ware on your PC. They do this to sneak around. I found a program named "G-Zapper" that deletes Google cookies. Does anybody know if Google spy ware is dangerous and harmful? I have to remove it daily. That’s annoying. Google is a very big company. I can not understand, why they don't get any troubles. Can they really do this legally?

I run Windows XP Pro, AVG free edition, Spybot, and Windows Defender....none of these removed it. I see virus burst in my tray and it pops up and gives me that "Critical system error" message.

I am getting a whole load of pop-ups advertising anti-spyware products and am getting seriously peed off with it! McAfee want to charge me £39.95 for a phone call with assistance. Surely someone out there must know a cheaper or easier way to get rid. BT anti-spy keeps coming up with an adware called Nuvens which it can't delete. Anyone please??!

I got a friend who never knew who are my friends on my lists, but one time when we talked online, he mentioned about names which were actually on my Yahoo Messenger buddy lists. I wondered how did he came to know that when he never saw my lists?

Upon mouseover, it says "Critical System Error". It occasionally pops a bubble box saying that it's detected a fatal error due to virus activities. When I click it, it prompts me to download Virus Blast, a corrupt "antivirus" program. I've tried clearing the startup registries to no avail. Also, avast! can't spot it with standard and boot time scans, as well as process scans. How do I get rid of it?

I've Norton Anti-virus software. I'm really annoyed by Norton Pop-UPs warning me that my Norton Anti-virus software is not uto date and it needs to be updated. I always update it when asked which is atleast everyday and many times as many as three times on some day. Every time you update you've to restart your computer. Hence my question what good is a software that needs to be updated everday or more often.
