The following list is made by the 2-Spyware.com research team. The overall infection rate, spreading speed, payload, relations with other parasites, stability and stealth – these are only a few factors from the large list that we took into consideration rating last year’s parasites. However, we do not pretend to be absolutely correct – rating spyware is very difficult, because the most recent pests combine virus payload with spyware and adware functionality. Nevertheless, we made our best putting the following Top 100 all together and making is trustworthy enough. We hope that you will find this information useful.
