Is there a complete 'spyware' program listing?

Nice link, I knew about GetRight, but not CuteFTP. CuteFTP isn't even free! Anyone know if it will work after removing with AdAware?

Sorry if my question seems silly, but what exactly is 'spyware' ?

Does it mean that the program looks what you're doing, send passwords/login...

Is it right ?

Well, I assumed that spyware meant that it was spying on you. Since getright, if not registered, displays ads, it prob watches where you go and then sends the ads it assumes you'll respond to. GetRight uses Engage as their advertising company. Since I know a good deal about Enage, they do not store your personal information. They assign you a record number and track where you surf. They don't know if you're male, female, or whatnot. You should worry about DoubleClick and their tactics.

I've used AtGuard and it catches inbound and outbound traffic. It then asks me if i permit such actions and then I can make the decisions permanent.
