From eMatrixSoft:

Power Spy software secretly monitors and records all activities on your computer. It records all keystrokes typed, MSN Messenger, Windows Live Messenger, ICQ, AIM/AOL, Yahoo Messenger, Windows Messenger and Skype's chat text, Web sites visited, e-mails read, documents opened, windows opened, clipboard activities, passwords typed, and applications executed. It even takes screen snapshots every X seconds and playback like a surveillance camera. Such monitoring acts so stealthily that the user won't know of its existence. However, it is easy for you to unhide its main program Control Panel with a custom hotkey, view the records directly from the CP, or receive all log reports via a custom e-mail or FTP.

"Powerful spy tools from Power Spy"

This PC-monitoring application offers an impressive collection of functions designed to help you keep a controlling eye on whoever uses your computer.

Power Spy 2007 watches all applications, with specific panels for five different chatting applications, as well as panels for logging URLs visited, keys typed, e-mails sent, documents worked on, and items copied to the clipboard. It also takes screenshots and can e-mail you with updates on the computer's usage. All logs, from the full text of instant messages to the slightest touch of the Enter key, are quickly logged and stamped by date and time.

In the control panel, you can access any of these logs to export, save, or delete them. The interface uses oversize icons to expedite category identification, and there are additional options for setting e-mail updates, the frequency of screenshots, and whether Power Spy loads when you start up the computer.

Although it'd be nice to see some filtering options integrated into this full monitoring package, Power Spy leaves little to be desired when it comes to how the family or work PC gets used.

Also, I very much appreciate your timely and professional response. Tech. support is important and you have affirmed that I can trust you to stand behind your applications.

"Worst everything.... uninstall, support, etc."

by bushygoose on March 25, 2008

Pros: NOTHING

Cons: DONT DOWNLOAD unless you are going to buy the product. If you download this product for the trial version you will never be able to uninstall without a major hassle. It will leave an advertisement on your desktop that will cover icons and you will not be able to move or remove. Their website tells you nothing on how to uninstall just how to purchase. There are no phone numbers or FAQ's, just a form to email for support.

It took me two days to finally find a forum on how to uninstall the trail version of this program. It made me want to throw my computer out of the window. I do not suggest downloading unless you want days of headaches.
