ComputerSpy is a malicious spyware or a surveillance tool. Once you install it on a computer, you will be able to collect information about every stroke this computer user types. This information is kept in an encrypted and password-protected file, which is then sent to the conspicuous interloper (the person who installed the spyware).
ComputerSpy is dangerous because recording every stroke, either upper-case or lower-case, makes any password, username or credit card number revealed to the attacker. This makes everything vulnerable to the attacker and under his leniency. The information collected can be used to blackmail somebody or to prepare some kind of scandal.
