It depends on what software it is. But the ones you cannot trust areon-line scanners, the only trusted online scanner I would say would be F-Secure. You can tell if it is a hacker by looking at the web page's domain. Say for a example: FREE ON-LINE COMPUTER SCANNER!!!!!!!!!! ABSOLUTELY 100% FREE!!!!!! Now I recommend you get Norton Anti-Virus 2009, you can buy it in a local Computer Software dealer. If you need any help, I can maybey help you out, but you see, I am a 11yrs old, and soon 12.

Some spyware programs are used by companies and businesses to monitor what ads the infected machine looks at so it can redesign its marketing efforts. However, most spyware programs are used by malicious hackers (crackers) to monitor an infected computer in order to steal confidential information like usernames and passwords to bank accounts. Adware does not classify as malware, but it can be very annoying. The word "adware" is a combination of "advertising" and "software". As you can already tell, all adware does is pop up ads at random times in order to convince the user to buy some product. Some antivirus companies nowadays come with adware protection to detect and remove adware.
