Can Adware Be Badware?
Though Spyware is somewhat similar to a computer virus, the focus is typically not to wreak havoc. Rather, it Detects Cookies, Files, Directories, Registry Entries, Index Files and other personal information on your system and sends that information ov
er the Internet to it's designer. Some Spyware is software designed to take control of your computer without your consent. Home Page Re-direction is one way it will mess with you and your computer system. If you notice that your home page has been changed to an unfamiliar page, Spyware is mostly likely the cause.
