Solve : Reactions when finding spyware?

Answer»

Back when i first learned about spyware/adware...I would semi freak-out and panic and think the world is coming to an end  

But now..

I just think "now how in the world did that shady (like its in with the wrong crowd...lol) spyware get on my system?"  And...it doesn't seem like that big of a deal...

What do you all think of itI never get spyware.Are you deathly honestly stick a needle in your eye serious???

I only get it on occasion...However...some software even includes it now...

It can not be completely avoided unless you do not connect your computer to the internet. Quote

And probably the most important...I never read the EULA either, unless I have a reason to distrust the software being installed.I love viruses/trojans worms......the SCRIPTS are interesting to say the least.......
