From Spyware with Love
It’s late, and you’ve been scouring the web for the perfect gift for your Aunt Bess in Idaho. You finally find it on a website called presents4aunties.com. The site looks a bit sketchy with its odd colors, but they have the gift that will surely earn you a spot in Aunt Bess’s will. You make the purchase and head to bed, tired but satisfied.
The next morning, with coffee in hand, you switch on your computer. It seems unusually slow today. Once it finally boots up, you open your browser to check the Cow Tipping Blog for the latest posts.
Wait, what’s this? Your homepage has been replaced by a site trying to sell a DVD titled "The Surfers vs. The Terminator." Slightly annoyed but not fully awake, you enter the URL for your blog and wait. After multiple attempts, it finally loads. As you read about the upcoming Cow Tipping Championship in Vegas, a popup for a heartburn cure appears, promising a secret cure for baldness if you click for a free gift.
Confused, you close the popup by clicking the X, not realizing that a hidden piece of code has now been downloaded to your computer.
You finish with the blog and decide to check your bank account. The login page finally appears, but you have no idea that a key logger is recording every keystroke you make. You verify the transaction for Aunt Bess’s gift, feeling content.
Then, you remember the email you forgot to send your boss. No problem?"you can log into your work portal from home. You attach the document and send it. It happens to contain sensitive information like personal details and login credentials for your colleagues.
As another popup disrupts your workflow, you wonder what’s wrong with your computer. At least you haven’t forgotten to send the boss’s document; you wouldn’t want to mess up your job at Trans Global Bank. It’s a prestigious position with offices worldwide.
Time to check your anti-virus program for updates. Oddly, it claims there are no updates "kneed ed"?"a clear misspelling. Thinking nothing of it, you decide to reboot your computer in hopes of resolving the slowness. Unfortunately, it won’t even boot up now. Thankfully, you have some extra funds in the bank to get it fixed.
The above is a fictional scenario, but it’s quite unsettling to think it could happen. While it’s a worst-case scenario, it highlights an important point.
Be smart, folks. Learn how to utilize your anti-virus and anti-spyware programs. Keep them updated, and if they don’t suit your browsing habits, find ones that will. Protect your computer?"your well-being might depend on it.
