To put it simply, yes. Every time you go online unprotected cookies and tracking devices are installed on your computer. Spyware devices can be used to track your Internet behavior or can be employed for more threatening activities like recording your keystrokes to obtain passwords or pulling information from your personal files.So what can you do to avoid spyware?
Install a powerful anti-spyware program that works well with your XP or Vista security.
Avoid downloading free software without investigating the site’s privacy policy first.
Don’t open emails from unknown sources.

You can download and scan your computer for free.
Try first AVZ. You can get it from here:

avast! and avira are both good free antivirus.take your pick the edge goes to avast! no antivirus program is 100%.i use malwarebytes and superantispyware for antimalware.they work very well together.i also use secunia personal software inspector to check my computer for out of date and end of life software.keeping your software and computer updated helps your computer stay healthy.
Mr. Know it all has good suggestions. I have AVG free, and spybot. The two of them together makes it so not much comes through.
On the rare occasion that I do get something that these can’t get out, I’ve been downloading the free trial of stopsign, running the scan and removing all the entries of the malware myself. It’s a nice one because it tells you exactly where the virus is hiding, including the registry. Many don’t do that.
I don’t recommend playing in the computers registry though if you’re unsure what you are doing.
edit-Do not get Norton. It is a joke of a program that gives more problems than fixes. It is known for this. I had to crash my computer down and reformat because of that f’ing program.
Well it’s not just you who have got this problem there might be thousands of others.
Download the free Avira Antivir. It’s the best. Try it yourself. I had virus in my laptop I was using USB to copy some files to my Desktop. I was running AVG on my Laptop. It was not detecting the virus as fast as Avira Antivir. The link is below

These AV`s are all free and good. I prefer AVG, been using it for 3 years with no problem.
