You will only know if you have any of the above infections if you scan your computer with a spyware / adware scanner. This will give you a clear picture of what you have on your computer

The most common ways to get infected with spyware or adware is through the use of porn sites, illegal download sites, various software packages and anything that looks like it is supported by adware / spyware. You can tell if a site might use adware / spyware because they usually operate for free with lots of supporting ads.

You can protect yourself using different pieces of software. Most notbily, using paid for software means you have a greater chance of removing all possible infections on your PC.
