Just remember that old saying...if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. As reported by Steve Bass, be on the lookout for the latest spyware scam called Marketscore. Marketscore claims to increase your Internet speed by 100%. Not only does it NOT increase your web browsing speed, it DOES intercept all of your web communication including data entered in web forms such as credit card numbers. Don't even visit the MarketScore web site, as it may install itself on your computer without your knowledge. It's a scary world out there.
