I dont know what tune up utilities is, but I know i get a lot of fake programs that pop up and tell me to buy their software. So maybe there really is no problem because with all the programs you have you should be pretty well covered.



What is the diff between spyware and spamware ??norten



spyware: aims to steal information from your connection and harddisk.



spamware: aims to broadcast information, ie, advertising. They don't steal information.
Guess you should not . You could just work on the setting of your @mail account . Then just don' t use your core real address for subscription or other purpose when in dubious sites .



You can get dummy addresses , sometimes good for 24h , sometimes for a week , for free .
anti spyware will not help to fight spam. take a look at article about ''how to stop spam'' http://www.2-spyware.com/articles/email/... if you don't leave your email address on suspicious websites, etc, it will be much more helpfull than any antispam software.
The difference between spyware and spamware is:



1. SPYWARE is software that is surreptitiously installed on a hard disk without the user's knowledge that relays on encoded information on his or her identity and Internet use via an Internet connection.



2. SPAMWARE is software designed by or for spammers, and it is also used to search for e-mail addresses to build list of e-mail addresses to be used either spamming directly or to be sold to spammers.
