Basically, I feel like my Win8.1 PC and my browser and all the software I use probably could track everything I do, including all my passwords, and feed it back to Microsoft, or whoever would pay for the information. I have a sneaking suspicion that that's one way these software people got so rich (golden parachute from the NSA?).
Antivirus software may protect against some intrusion, but everything I do on my PC is probably available to the highest bidder.
I'd be glad if a knowledgeable person on this board could tell me otherwise......
