"Monitor Spy v1.4" is designed to detect any known or unknown software keystroke monitoring programs (key loggers), as well as system monitoring software designed to take a "snap shot" of the active screen. Unlike most software applications of this type, it does not rely on pattern-matching, so it will work on unknown types of monitoring programs. In other words.. it does not just check the system for known monitoring software being installed but performs several tests that activate the key logger / snapshot monitoring software and returns the name and path of the log file(s) created as well as all software names and path that are running on the system at the time the file(s) were created or modified.
