well for a couple of days ago i found out that there was spyware and cookies on my program. i have removed the spyware but the cookies are a bit more difficult. one time i thought that my computer was a bit slower but i ignored it. who has tried that their computer had spyware or some other kind of evil software.
can anybody tell me how serious this problem is in the world.

Download Spybots, Its better then just 1 week trial. You will be able to delete cookies whenever you want.
