Brigitta Schwulst asked: Definition Spyware are programs that run on your computer. They are generally downloaded but can be installed, often without your knowledge or approval. There are various forms or types of spyware programs, ranging from very benign programs which may try to sell you something - I am sure you’ve see those annoying popups - to malware which can either damage your computer physically to the point that it stops working - like a virus - or the spyware may take note of your keystrokes or private information which it then emails to the owner of the spyware.
