Securing Your V5
Installing a Spyware Blocker
Spyware typically retrieves information about your Web-
surfing habits. It can be secretly installed on your computer
with a free download and can even be installed just by visit-
ing a Web site. Spyware can cause your Web searches to
be redirected and pop up annoying adds. Once your com-
puter is infected with spyware, it can be very difficult to
remove. The key is to prevent infection in the first place by
installing spyware blocker software. Spyware blocking soft-
ware can be purchased online; and you can even download
free spyware blocking programs.
