malware

and evilware

n. malicious software; software that intentionally harms normal computer software. (Includes viruses, spyware, data miners, trojan horses, and other programs designed to damage or destroy a computer.) The industry is concerned about the increase in “malware” but leaders don’t know what to do at this point. I used all sorts of stuff to get rid of the evilware, but it’s still there somewhere.
