You Run The Risk Of...
- Losing all your home videos that you've saved on your computer
- Losing all the digital pictures you have stored on your computer
- Unwittingly spreading viruses or trojan horses to everyone in your address book
- Getting objectionable pop-up windows that you can't get rid of
- Needing to pay a technician to clean out your computer (and they don't come cheap!)
There are two basic types of firewalls ó hardware and software, though the distinction can be misleading. Hardware rarely does much without extra software to guide it, and software can't even exist without hardware. It has to be stored somewhere and execute on something.
The spyware installed with these, and many other, programs gather information about web browsing habits so that targeted advertising can be delivered to the user. 'Targeted' advertising is designed to be presented to specific groups, selected by analyzing their buying or browsing habits. Selections are made by discovering gender, age, frequently visited sites or by other criteria.
