The latest spy technology for cell phones is easy to find on the internet. 13 Investigates bought some spy software and, with the permission of a WTHR producer, downloaded it onto her cell phone.

What happened next is pretty spooky. I was able to listen in to her phone conversations, read her text messages, and no matter where she went with her cell phone, I got constant satellite updates on her location. I could literally track her movements anywhere she went.

You can look for subtle signs yourself. For example, if your phone lights up for no apparent reason, or if it feels warm to the touch when you're not using it, that could mean the phone is actually in use and being tapped.

As far as how you get rid of spy software, you don't. You need a secret pass code to deactivate the program. If you don't have it, you're out of luck. At that point, you need a new phone.
