Spyware is software that collects personal information, changes computer configurations, or displays advertising without the user's awareness or consent. It can spread through shareware downloads, change security settings, slow down computers, and relay private information by tracking online activities. To prevent issues caused by spyware, users should use anti-spyware programs, keep their system clean by updating software, and be careful when installing other programs.
