You have installed the Most recent Anti-Virus

always updating your virus definitions gradually [ every day .. if u do ] .. after
that you are surfing the internet .. with a mind free of any possibilities of any
virus or attacks to enter your Lovely PC ....

Computer without your permission or allowance .. it's installed secretly on
your Programs .. but how ??

Accelerator Plus "DAP" , AG satellite [ Audio galaxy Download Manager ], KaZaA , Bonzi buddy .... ] that makes the Privacy .. to dust ...
Behind the scenes :
-----------------
At installations of this Programs .. 99%
of this software tricks the user by Not telling them that the installation process
includes spyware software with the original installation .. they make
this [ To be legal at the courts] by adding a sentence at the last of the
document of the [License Agreement (EULA) ] that "all of us don't read "
at the installation process .. so u press "Next >> Button" without
knowing that there is a bomb in this License agreement , that will destroy your
Privacy on the the Internet when you are connected with the internet .. after
the installation ends .. and You go on the internet ... the spying process
begins >>>
That doesn't mean that they are all
criminals .. some software tells you that they will install [ and ads software ..
to be connected to lates hot shopping deals .. and latest computer news ] .. that's
Funny ... some of that software like [ DivX , Audiogalaxy ]
Spying :
----------
It starts by collecting information about your
computer and the e-mail of your majesty . and all the addresses at
your address book ,your IP .... etc .. and send them to the [HELL] .. the Ads

Ads Servers :
--------------
this the factory of all panic that will
attack your Mind ....the start selling your e-mail and the e-mails addresses of
your friends and your IP address to the Advertisements sites and other people
