2. Spyware hides the fact that it is installed by using Rootkit (a tool written by a hacker to get rid of the testing tools installed on the computer), of course, if you have 'toothed weapon' and careful in operation on the screen, there's nothing to worry about. Maybe for example two programs: Internet Media's Elitetoolbar and ContextPlus' Apropos and PeopleonPage .

3. A piece of code written in Java can be infected with IE if a machine uses both operating systems simultaneously as FireFox and IE . This error has also been patched.
