By monitoring email for instance, attachments that could contain a virus or spyware can be blocked. In fact, if you do work in a corporate environment you should assume that everything you do on your work computer can be seen. Of course as Wikileaks revealed, intelligence agencies around the world have been doing this for years, but their snooping has been done on a vast and indiscriminate scale, though of course they do zero in on individuals. The advancement of technology into everyday life means that spying software is no longer confined to the domain of professional snoopers, as is evident in the raft of commercial spying and monitoring software now widely available for use on home computers.
And with this surge into the home market a hard sell is taking place, usually based on fear and suspicion of a cheating spouse. If you think someone is spying on you there are some simple steps you can take to find out. This is usually known as remote control software or virtual network computing VNC software and it allows someone to see why you are doing on your computer. However, it needs to be installed on your computer in the first place.
By checking in the start menu you can see which programs are running. If any of these programs are installed, then someone can connect to your computer without you knowing it as long as the program is running in the background as a Windows service. Usually, if one of the above listed programs is installed, there will be an icon for it in the task bar because it needs to be constantly running to work.
Check all of your icons and see what is running. The above tasks are easy to carry out even for people without technical knowledge. If you do discover one, you can simply halt it in its tracks by unchecking the box; putting paid to the snooping misdeeds. However, if blocking spies was a simple as this, the spied upon would be rolling in clover and the spies would be scuttling off gnashing their teeth.
Unfortunately, it can be rather more complicated. Checking the ports is a necessary step and it may help identify and stop snoopware. However, in some cases the spying software may only have an out bound connection to a server. In Windows, all out bound connections are allowed, which means nothing is blocked. One way to check this is to analyse something called the Transmission Control Protocol TCP which will show you all the connections from your computer to other computers. Wanted you to know that I tried 6 different software packages for my home PC and yours is absolutely the best.
I have already recommended it to 3 other people who were looking for such a product. The interface is amazingly easy and intuitive, the data which is captured far exceeded my expectations and is extremely easy to retrieve. It monitors all the things I need - browsers, chats, emails, inactivity time. Spent very little time to configure the logging and log-sending to my email.
Will see what else it can do, but until now it seems to be a good one. Now having seen it run. I can't believe the details on every item. The simplicity of setting up logging is very user friendly.
