Most people hate these. The only people I can think that don't would be:
1) The creators of said software/techniques
2) The people who create applications to defend against these.
3) The people who support recovery from these.
Out of all of these, I find hackers and virus writers to be the most annoying. Adware and Spyware are pretty easily avoided with careful Internet browsing and not installing all those "free" applications available out there (i.e. only install trusted applications from reputable sources).
** Edit **
bill goldberg - While I can appreciate moving off Microsoft (I do UNIX administration/development), making statements that Linux or Mac are adware, spyware, virus, or hacker free is completely untrue. They do occur far less than on Microsoft Windows, but they do exist. We use McAfee on all our systems, including our Solaris and Red Hat Linux systems.

you need to verify your terminology. whilst all the different communities you named are undesirable, Hackers are no longer. If it became no longer for Hackers there could be no Open source application at the same time with Firefox, Opera, and Linux. additionally Hackers discover and document risk-free practices flaws long till now companies like Apple and Microsoft discover them and particularly some the time till now somebody is in a position to exploit the weak spot. Hackers do no longer have confidence in hiding issues and conserving secrets and strategies. issues modern-day in application is as we communicate reported and published on the internet so persons are attentive to the project and the builders be attentive to it desires to be fastened. Hackers have confidence that wisdom could be shared freely and openly. They hate monopolies and the restrict of freedom. all of the different communities you have named are committing federal crimes, and are prosecuted while caught.

Every Good computer user!!!!
The ones I hate the most are the Anti-Virus programs that put something on your computer then want you to buy their product to remove it.
