Answer:

Installing an unwanted software without the knowledge of the user of the computer and stealing internet usage data and other sensitive information is known as​ Malware (malicious software).

Explanation:

Malware refers to any software that is designed to harm or disrupt computer systems. This can include viruses, spyware, adware, trojan horses, ransomware, and more.

When malware is installed without the knowledge or consent of the computer user, it is considered malicious. These types of programs can cause a variety of problems, from slowing down the computer, to stealing personal information and internet usage data, to holding the user's files for ransom.

It's important to keep anti-virus software up-to-date and be cautious when downloading and installing software to avoid falling victim to malware attacks.
