Microsoft on the Issues: Bring Spyware Out of the Shadows | |
|
||
| Time: 13:49 EST/18:49 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner | ||

It can disrupt the operation of PCs and furtively collect personal information about their users. It has become pervasive and increasingly troublesome as the world has become more connected. The U.S. House of Representatives has overwhelmingly approved two different anti-spyware bills. As the Senate takes up the issue, Microsoft and many other technology companies have joined in supporting targeted legislation that would establish a strong, national standard for anti-spyware enforcement. | ||
