According to Wikipedia, "The first recorded use of the term spyware occurred on October 16, 1995 in a Usenet post that poked fun at Microsoft's business model." Since then the little buggers have taken on a life of their own.
If you are a Windows user (spyware mainly targets you), then you might need to protect yourself from these harmful pieces of software. Sunbelt Software make "CNET's Number One Antispyware Software", called CounterSpy. Drop by their site today to see how you can better protect your computer and personal information.
Disclosure: the writers of Magna Techa were financially compensated for informing you about CounterSpy by Sunbelt Software.
