The most inconvenient of all computers issues are adware and malware programs. They embed themselves deep inside of the system core files so they become nearly impossible to find. If left untreated, they can severely damage your computer, and eventually corrupt all your important documents. To distinguish between the two, adware usually comes bundled in packages that may be purchased or downloaded at little or no cost. adware can also be considered Shareware. These programs cause pop-ups to occur while browsing the internet, and become increasingly annoying over time. There are programs available that may help control the amount of pop-ups and adware that you receive, such as Spybot – Search & Destroy, and Panicware’s Pop-Up Blocker. These are free programs that may be downloaded free-of-cost, but are no substitute for a real removal program. They merely slow the adware down.
