Comment: I was cleaning out my mother's PC today because she had complained it was running quite slowly. I updated spybot and the usual anti-spyware programs which were *grossly* out of date. She had 7 instances of "WarezP2P" on her computer. The thing that baffles me is my mother spends her days playing bejewled and looking for things on ebay and reading about home decorating tips. No one else uses her computer. Where in the world could it have come from? An e-mail? A pop-up ad?
