Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To protect his computer from pop-up ads, hackers, and identity theft, Jake should invest in antispyware software, which helps detect and remove spyware and other malicious software from his computer. Adware refers to software that displays advertising on his computer, which may not provide any protection against hackers or identity theft. Decision support software and cyber cookies have no relevance to protecting his computer from these threats.
