Is GameSpy Arcade spyware?

The name said it all for me...I think.


No, they just happen to have spy in their name. They host servers for the multi-player aspects of a lot of pc games, it's installed along with the game.

GameSPY Arcade it's just an auxiliary software that allows you to play online different video games that support it. It's not spyware! Just because it's name includes Spy doesn't mean it's spyware!!!

Some weeks ago I had a problem with my computer, it was slowing down and i couldn't explain why some websites where redirecting! Since I had a good (norton) antivirus system I did not think that I had spyware! , however a friend of mine came to my house and immediately told me that I had a spyware program, he entered into a site downloaded one of the free programs featured there and installed it on my computer, after running this program my computer is fast and downloading normally, whilst my homepage was also restored.

the webpage where you can find free reliable anti spyware is:
