Top 10 ranking of the spyware in 2006
Posted on 08 January 2007.

PandaLabs has published its list of the spyware most frequently detected
by Panda ActiveScan in 2006. The top ranking spyware is Gator. This
adware offers free use of an application if users agree to view a series
of pop-up messages downloaded by Gator. Some versions of this spyware
replace banners on web pages visited with those created by the malicious
code itself.
