Spyware: A few questions for you.

I would like to know a couple of things.

1 - What is Spyware? What does it do, and what's the purpose of it?

2 - Would Spyware be the reason behind all the sudden, uncontrollable pop-ups that keep happening to me every time that I get online?

3 - If I used Ad-Aware to remove these thing, would one way of knowing where the ads came from be the fact that my cookies keep getting erased for the site that I visited? ( not TFP, but another site )

Thanks for any comments!
