Spyware Information: OICQ Search 1.7

Others can be used by hackers or other unauthorized individuals to watch everything that happens on your computer, or to even take control of your computer. Because these tools give the remote person the same access that you have, sitting right at your computer, they can be a very serious security and privacy concern.
