Microsoft Windows - You don't even know about it because it is in the OS. When installing Windows 10, it show a window where you can turn the spyware off. But they made it look like something that will help you, so many people are still spied on.
Let me reinstall your OS, you need to get the spyware out of your computer. They've been spying on you all along.

Spyware Quake is a fake spyware-removal program that actually is spyware in itself. It is characterized by a gray-silver program that says it removes spyware. Also, two alternate HTMLs come up called "Online Security Guide" and "Security Troubleshooting". These come up as green and blue shield symbols with checkmarks. Your computer will continue to remind you that you are infected with spyware, even though these reminders are part of Spyware Quake itself. Spyware Quake is downloaded through VCodec.
