DESCRIPTION
This category includes pages which distribute spyware and other
malware. Spyware is defined as software which takes control of
your computer, modifies computer settings, collects or reports
personal information, or misrepresents itself by tricking users to
install, download, or enter personal information. This includes
drive-by downloads; browser hijackers; dialers; intrusive
advertising; any program which modifies your homepage,
bookmarks, or security settings; and keyloggers. It also
includes any software which bundles spyware (as defined
above) as part of its offering. Information collected or reported
is "personal" if it contains uniquely identifying data, such as e-
mail addresses, name, social security number, IP address, etc. A
site is not classified as spyware if the user is reasonably notified
that the software will perform these actions (that is, it alerts
that it will send personal information, be installed, or that it will
log keystrokes). Note: Sites rated as spyware should have a
second category assigned with them.
This category includes pages to which spyware (as defined in
the Spyware/Malware Sources category) reports its findings or

sites to which software can connect and send user info; sites
that make extensive use of tracking cookies without a posted
privacy statement; and sites to which browser hijackers redirect
users. Usually does not include sites that can be marked as
Spyware/Malware. Note: Sites rated as spyware effects typically
have a second category assigned with them.
