Spywares?

[akaladis Veteran]

I just noticed the "Our guide to preventing spywares"... Shouldn't it be spyware instead of spywares? Unless of course you say "Let's buy some hardwares" :p

you can spell spyware with a "s". you can also spell adware with a "s" as well.

^ yeap, google confirmed

Hmm, a whole thread about whether or not an s can be added to the word ...ware. Even Webster's dictionary shows that it is indeed permissable. If that is the only thing to complain about in the mentioned guide then hats off to whoever made it ;)

I am pretty sure that spyware can be a uni/plural word.

[gdodson]

It's 'spyware' and 'adware' not 'spywares'. 'Spyware' is both singular and plural.

OK then... didn't even read your post, but whatever floats your boat....

[Anthony T.]

You said almost the same thing as me. Whatever, I am not going to start flooding this thread with bs.

It looks odd, but I'm pretty sure its gramitcally correct.

Perhaps if they changed the article to also say Spywares? The article says spyware, without an s, so im not sure.
