I've heard of spyware used by advertising companies, is this the same thing?
NO. Spyware covers the broad range of software which takes information from your system without your knowledge or consent. There are two major flavors of spyware, Advertiser spyware and Computer Monitoring spyware. Our software is designed specifically to detect the computer monitoring variety. Some examples of computer monitoring programs are Spector, KeyKey, 007 STARR, Boss Everywhere and I-See-U. There are over detectable computer monitoring spy programs not listed here, some of them freeware!
So how do I get rid of advertiser spyware?
We recommend either SpyBlocker or Ad-Aware to get rid of advertiser spyware. Both of these programs are free for personal noncommercial use. Where SpyCop defends you against computer monitoring spy programs, these applications defend you against advertisers. You may use SpyChecker to see if a free program you are about to download is "infected".
What types of computer monitoring spy programs are available?
There are simple ones known as keyloggers which record your keystrokes for later viewing on the same PC and then there are the totally insidious type which can record your screen as a slide show and Email the recording to someone else. Of course, there is everything in between.

Why is this so dangerous?
Reading the information above should make this obvious. Anyone who may want to keep an eye on you, including your Boss, Spouse, Company Employees, X-lover, hackers and criminals can easily learn more about you then you would ever want. Spy software makes it easy for anybody to get your financial information, credit card numbers, and web site passwords! Our Software will search your system for these programs and optionally disable them for you.
Why haven't I heard about this before?
The widespread use of spy software is a somewhat recent phenomenon. There were keyloggers and such in the early computing days of DOS, but nothing nearly as invasive as the ones available today. More and more people are using spy programs to spy on each other's computer usage. Programs advertised as software to keep your child's Internet activities in check are being used by spouses and bosses. Some companies are advertising that their software can be useful for catching your spouse cheating online. The scary part of this is that companies advertising this way are making the largest number of sales!
Why can't I just clean my registry or delete startup items?
Most of the more advanced spy programs run completely hidden. This means they are not visible in the task list, are not shown in your registry and are not shown in the standard startup areas. Instead, these spy programs are placed in another area of Windows startup which "startup cleaners" don't usually look at, and once they are running, they run in "stealth" mode. Our software can find them all, even if the person who installed then renamed the files themselves!
I'm a business owner; why do I have to be concerned with this?
Just like Bosses can spy on their employees, employees can spy on their bosses. An angry employee can simply swipe credit card numbers from the bank they work at, or this software can be used for a new form of corporate espionage. The fact is, these types of activities are occurring at this very moment within the business world! Is YOUR business safe?
Is spying in this way legal?
Spy software itself is legal. It is perfectly legal for an employer to install it on computers they own and it is legal to install the software on other's computers with their consent. It is illegal for a person to install software on another person's computer without permission. Despite this, illegal spy software installation occurs quite frequently in the real world.
Are there other ways people snoop on my Pc?
Yes! Your machine leaves traces of what you have done. Internet history, temporary files and folders, cache, cookies and more.
Anyone with even relative computer expertise can find info from these data trails left behind.
What can I do about it?
Install our software on your computer!
