Have you ever wondered what information is exchanged on your computer behind your back? Who is your child chatting with and what is he saying? What does your wife have to discuss over the Internet every night? Are your employees misusing the chat facility given to them and sending along company information to outsiders? Well, if these or other such questions keep troubling you, install the ICQ Spy Monitor.

The ICQ Spy Monitor is a spy software and gives you a detailed report about the ICQ conversations on your computer. It records information such as time, user, and conversation content in a user-friendly tabular format, which can be viewed on the computer screen, printed, or saved as an HTML file for later analysis. You can also email the log files to a pre-determined email address. The icons for all functions such as start, stop, stealth, exit, refresh, delete, config, wizard, and help are displayed as icons on the main program screen and to activate any of these all you have to do is click on the relevant icon. For instance, if you want to start monitoring all the ICQ activity on your computer, all you need o do is click on the Start icon and you will then see a log being created for all the ICQ chat sessions that take place on your computer from that point onwards.

Further, you can also program a hotkey to start the stealth software without anybody else noticing what you have done. You can also password protect the program so that no one but you has access to what is being recorded by the ICQ Spy Monitor.

All in all, for the ease of tracking all the ICQ conversations that go on on your computer that this software provides and for its easy-to-use and extremely user-friendly interface, the ICQ SPY Monitor definitely deserves a rating of 3.5.
