Does damaka contain any Spyware, Adware, Malware?
Absolutely NOT.
A Spyware software collects personal information from your computer without your permission or knowledge. A spyware can collect sensitive information like user names and passwords.
adware is any software application in which advertising banners are displayed while the program is running. The authors of these applications include additional code that delivers the ads, which are viewed through pop-up windows or through a bar that appears on a computer screen. Adware has been criticized because it usually includes code that tracks a user's personal information and passes it on to third parties, without the user's authorization or knowledge.
Malware (from malicious software) is any type of programming intended to cause harm. Viruses, worms, spyware, and Trojan horses are the most common examples of malware. Among other things, a malware infection can: corrupt files, alter or delete data, distribute confidential data, disable hardware, deny legitimate user access, and cause a hard drive to crash. Frequently, malware is also designed to send itself from your e-mail account to all the friends and colleagues in your address book.
