Spyware
Spyware and Malware are software remotely installed (usually unknowingly) for the purpose of gathering user information. Virus protection programs don't protect you from most spyware/malware. We recommend using Malwarebytes free personal version.
Get Malwarebytes:
from the official site and use the free version to scan for malware. The Pro version provides real time protection and is not required if you already have an anti-virus program such as Symantec.
