CNET Download.com 5/5 Star Rating Review of SpyBuddy Spy Software!

"This application offers a good array of features for monitoring PC activity in your absence. Like most software of its kind, SpyBuddy keeps records of keystrokes, Web sites visited, and applications used. The program offers you an easy method for configuring settings during launch, and the well-organized and modern interface makes it easy to keep tabs on everything. SpyBuddy can record all disk activities, printed documents, and clipboard contents, and you can regularly get reports via e-mail or FTP. Also, although you can schedule surveillance sessions, you can't change settings remotely. The utility also can lead users away from temptation by blocking Web sites or applications of your choosing. Finally, like any good surveillance program, SpyBuddy is tough for others to detect and uninstall. If you need to keep children away from adult content or just want peace of mind, SpyBuddy is an easy and virtually foolproof way to wiretap your system." - Download.com
