    A spybot virus is what it's name implies - it simply records everything you do and sends them over the internet to the "spybotter" The original bigtime spybot was Napster - it would copy files from your system without telling you. Soon, more than music was being copied.

    As a spybot is actually a virus - Antivirus software will do the trick.

    • Norton AntiVirus is useless in deleting potential virus threats or adwares, so the user must do everything manually.
