Spyware Horror Stories

Earlier this year, we published a feature called Spyware Horror Stories, in which readers related their most wretched encounters with malicious software. Since then, the spread of spyware hasn't slowed down, so we're collecting user stories for use in an ongoing weekly feature.

Please include the spyware's name and a brief description of what it did to your computer, then tell us how you eradicated it. We'll post the most compelling missives on our site, so the world can hear you vent.
