I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but here it goes.

Earlier tonight, I was looking at some of the traffic source from my blog. I noticed that one was from a site called "mspy.com". Curious, I checked it out.

Apparently, mspy.com (pronounced 'M Spy', short for Mobile Spy) is a site that sells software for tracking phones. On the front page is a picture of an iPhone and a few testimonials. Currently, I have an iPhone 4S, version 5.0.1 (9A405) on AT&T.

Sometimes, I check my blog from my phone. I was wondering, is there a chance that I have Spyware on my phone? How would I check? What are some steps that I could take to counter this?

Thank you for the help.

If you are not jailbroken, no. If you are, also a likely no. The only way you can have spyware on your jailbroken iPhone is if you install something from a non-default Cydia repo.
