Comet Cursor, lop.com, Gator, OnFlow Player, and KaZaA are the most
infamous of the spyware that's out there. Those who done moderate to
heavy websurfing would have come across Comet, lop.com, and OnFlow to see
that they take over your desktop and your browser without notice.
Like PCCat, I do strongly recommend installing and running Ad-Aware to
see if you have any spyware components in your Win9x system. Your
eyebrows will be raised when you find out what Ad-Aware seen in your
registry, hard disk, and RAM!
