Spyware
is a virus that not only slows down your computer but can access some
of your information as well. So the risk of turning off messages
about spyware and related protection is that you will not be able to
know if spyware or malware has already entered your computer. By
doing that, you will not have a chance to defend against the viruses
that will enter or have already entered your computer because you
turned off the spyware alert messages.
