Surprisingly I’ve not seen that much blogging about the SpywareInfo » cws-id-theft website where trojan software downloaded by CoolWebSearch can result in all sorts of personal information being uploaded to a file ranging from credit card/bank numbers/social security numbers etc.
Now the process of ensuring a pc is spyware free is not just restricted to running spybot or your application of your choice. It is getting more and more likely that you would have to inform the various companies that hold personal information that your data may have been compromised. Just think for a second how many companies this could include if you use your pc to do banking/pay bills/apply for a job……..
Its looking more and more likely that the only way to ensure you have a safe pc is to reformat it and start again.
