The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill today that will impose prison sentences for certain uses of spyware and theft of personal information from computers.  With the vast majority of computers already infected with some form of spyware, this legislation could put some teeth in to the penalties that violaters will incur.  Yahoo posted an AP article called “House approves bill to combat spyware” with more information.  Contact Austin Lane today if you suspect that you may have a PC infected with spyware.  Our technicians are trained to detect and remove such infections, as well as implement measures to prevent potential threats.
