Spysure UK: Frequently Asked Questions

1. Will SpySure work on my PC?

Yes, as long as you are running Windows XP, Windows Me, Window 2000 or Windows NT 4 or above and have a Pentium-based CPU running at 150 MHz or faster.

2. How much memory is appropriate for Spysure?

SpySure will run with 32M of memory, but we suggest 64M of memory or more for optimal performance.

3. How much disk space does Spysure take?

This depends on many factors, such as how frequently you set SpySure to save your screen snapshots, and how many days you allow SpySure to record before automatically getting rid of files. It also depends on how heavily you use your PC.

A typical 8-hour day of recording will take about 10-20M of hard disk space.

4. Is Spysure like the Internet filtering programs?

No. We at SpySure do not believe that filters are very effective. They too often don't catch the web sites you want to stay away from, and they often prevent you from visiting completely legitimate sites. We believe that recording what people actually do is the best way to keep them from inappropriate sites. When people know they may be watched, they are much more careful about what they do.

5. Can I use Spysure and an Internet filtering program at the same time?

Yes.

6. Will Spysure work with my other PC applications besides the Internet?

Yes. SpySure records PC activity for all of your applications, including word processors, spreadsheets, financial programs, databases, communications, and even games. If you are concerned about how much time your employees are spending playing games at work, you'll be able to see exactly how they are spending their time with SpySure.

8. Can I use the information recorded with Spysure as evidence in a court of law?

SpySure can not guarantee that you will be able to use the recordings in a court of law. A judge determines the admissibility of evidence on a case by case basis. Therefore there is no clear cut answer to this questiion. We do not offer this software with any promisis neither do we gurantee any results.

9. Should I inform my employees or others that they are being monitored?

It maybe a good idea to do that. This should automatically reduce any potential abuse of the office computers for internet and personal use. SpySure does not require you to inform your employees that they are being montiored. That is entirely your own discretion.

10. But, if I tell them, I'm afraid they will try to circumvent the software.

That is why Spysure has a super Stealth feature.

When installed in Stealth mode, SpySure does not show up as an icon, does not appear in the Windows system tray, does not appear in Windows Programs, does not show up in the Windows task list, cannot be uninstalled without the SpySure password which YOU specify, and SpySure does not slow down the operation of the computer it is recording.
