ChatBlocker Spyware

Removing ChatBlocker
Categories: Spyware
Spyware is computer software that is installed surreptitiously on a personal computer
to intercept or take partial control over the user's interaction
with the computer, without the user's informed consent.

While the term spyware suggests software that secretly monitors the user's behavior,
the functions of spyware extend well beyond simple monitoring.

Spyware programs can collect various types of personal information,
such as Internet surfing habit, sites that have been visited,
but can also interfere with user control of the computer in other ways,
such as installing additional software, redirecting Web browser activity,
accessing websites blindly that will cause more harmful viruses,
or diverting advertising revenue to a third party.

Spyware can even change computer settings, resulting in slow connection speeds,
different home pages, and loss of Internet or other programs.
In an attempt to increase the understanding of spyware, a more formal classification
of its included software types is captured under the term privacy-invasive software.
