I purchased the previous version of Spyagent & found it didn't perform as advertised. From memory it didn't do stealth mode at all - no matter what the OS was - & it didn't send out emails. And the greatest catch was the arrogance of the author who took great offense when I suggested his s/w had some problems! Half a dozen email back & forth & no resolution. Refused to refund. Conclusion: Avoid SpyAgent at all costs (unless you can afford to throw your money away, of course ;-) JD. ----- Original Message ----- From: "joe pentester" <jpentesterat_private> To: <forensicsat_private> Sent: Thursday, 04 October, 2001 4:09 AM Subject: Spyagent (was Spysoft Functionality) > I have similar questions about another utility: > > Has anyone used Spy Agent 4.0 from: > http://www.internet-monitoring-spy-software.com/spyagent.htm > > I want to verify the following claims: > > The website states that the software is "completely > hidden within your computer system after installation. > The ONLY way to access it is by typing the password > on your keyboard".
