BEWARE! as this is especially true of Computer Spyware detection programs and "FREE Spyware Scans" which can contain Spyware themselves or provide false positives indicating that their is Syware on your computer in an effort to trick you into buying their programs. Before you buy any Anti-Spyware program check out the information on Rogue Spyware and programs to avoid! Click Here.
