Spyware originally was created for marketing

behavior and report to spyware makers. These surfing statistics are used
to deliver buyer specific marketing materials. The most common form of
such materials are pop-up advertisements.

randomly sent to computer user email addresses. Email addresses are
extracted from various sources, either collected through a website or by
software scanning millions of web pages at the same time.
Spam can be used for three purposes:
