You may be a potential victim that has been targeted by cybercriminals the next time you receive an e-mail addressed specifically to you. Be extra cautious!

Typically, malwares is installed without the user's knowledge or consent, though it is often packaged with other software that the user does in fact choose to install.

Malwares can be used to attack key individuals in a company or organisation, or even for political and military motives.

For examples, malwares could be used to attack any groups, organisations and individuals with carefully targeted and technically-advanced e-mail-based malwares aimed at infecting the computers or spying on the owners.

In easy words malwares are type of spies which enters in you PC through internet and make places in important folders. It can then download more malwares to your computer and increase the infection, steal your passwords, ID, social security number, credit card numbers, etc and then send this info back to sender.

Different types of malwares include spyware, trojan horses, rootkits, keyloggers, viruses, and worms. Also, certain types of adware are considered malware.

Even seemingly legitimate software and media, such music compact discs from Sony BMG and Microsoft Genuine Advantage, have been found to contain malwares.

It should be noted that not all viruses are malwares, and that not all malwares are viruses. Most antivirus software does little or nothing about malwares. Nowadays, no single software does an entirely good job.

That is why don’t let malwares take over your PC. Things you can do:

1. Turn off external or remote login services to your computer so that someone cannot just remotely login and take over your computer.

2. Use multiple anti malwares packages to clean up the computer infections (malwares).

Go one step ahead by spying as much as possible on this malwares (malicious software) and be prepared to remove it from your PC.
