There is nothing I'm doing on my computer that would bring up this "Spyonyou" thing.

It's not that simple. It would likely be a program that got downloaded onto your computer in the past. You wouldn't even know it's running.

If you're running Windows 98, go to the Run menu on the start menu and type in "msconfig" and hit enter. Then go through the various tabs that have to do with startup and see what is being loaded. Looking at the path of each startup program file so you can get an idea what it is associated with. You can use Google to search for program names you don't recognize and see if any are related to spyware.
