Rick, Antivirus and Antispyware are not doing the same job.They have different functions
ReplyDelete•Viruses are malicious pieces of software that once you ‘catch’ them, they infect your computer in various ways. Once you’re infected you need to be disinfected. AntiVirus software does this. So, it’s treating the symptoms of ‘illness’. The software should be sophisticated enough to also root out and remove any Viruses that are sitting on your computer dormant.
•Spyware is also malicious but it’s job is to sit on your computer, not affecting your files or functionality, but recording and broadcasting information about your activity or data to others. Your computer isn’t ill because of the presence of such software, but it can be slowed down by all the extra processing it has to do.
