Spyware. If you have it installed, get it removed however you can, ASAP.

absolute trash! constantly bogs down the browser and you get nowhere.

So... My mom installed it on my computer so she could see what I have done on my computer using WebWatcher and it's very glitchy and sometimes stops recording what I've done and my mom punishes me for its breaking down. I was wondering if there was any way for it to be fixed so it can better read my websites and always tell her what I'm doing.
