This category includes a variety of Trojans that damage victim machines or
threaten data integrity, or impair the functioning of the victim machine.
Adware are programs that facilitate delivery for advertising content
to the user and in some cases gather information from the user's computer.

The BHO (Browser Helper Object) waits for the user to post personal information to a monitored website.
As this information is entered by the user, it is captured by the BHO and sent back to the attacker.
Backdoors are used by virus writers to detect and download confidential information,
execute malicious code, destroy data, include the machine in bot networks and so forth.

These utilities are designed to penetrate remote computers
in order to use them as zombies (by using backdoors) or to download other malicious programs to computer.

Exploits use vulnerabilities in operating systems and applications to achieve the same result.
