Closing a pop-up? Nix the "X"

Unwanted pop-ups keep downloading malware onto Patricia's family's computer. She knows how to stop it. Do you? Test your knowledge in this week's Spyware Horror Story.

"I dabble in a high-risk area of the 'Net...I click links for money. That, in itself, opens me to tons of security issues."

So begins Patricia's personal Spyware Horror Story (see all.)
