CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This application offers a good array of features for monitoring PC activity in your absence. Similar to most software of its kind, SpyBuddy records 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. Although you can schedule surveillance sessions in advance, 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.Publisher's description

Version: SpyBuddy 3.4
"This is a grea spying program!"
Pros: Clear and gorgeous interface, quite cheap for an almost-complete suite, and records data accurately! And also in complete stealth! I was very impressed so I bought it!
Cons: Configuring it is quite complicated for beginners, though I'm not. The program window isn't resizable. Besides those, everything's good.

Version: SpyBuddy 3.4
Pros: The most eye catching thing about this software is its elegant, dazzling oh lets just say its beautiful! On the other hand there are a large number of ways to monitor what people do on your PC. The IM and screenshot features worked a treat and i found out what i needed.
Cons: Not for beginners may take time setting up perfectly and the logs MAY take up a large space on your hardrive

"It is good but not for little advanced users"
Pros: before i tryed i read about the spybuddy discription and opinion. it sound good.
so i download and tryed it.
when you install, program ask me for admin mode or stealth mode. of course, i want stealth mode.
ok. it is done. it is easy to use. very nice interface.
Cons: BUT~~~~ on the control panel, you see spy buddy........... no~~~~~ good.
nowdays, everybody know about control panel, add/remove.........
so i check again......
there is 2 version. one is i download and tryed, and another one is spybuddy. stealth edition.... um...... stealth EDITION.... this is not good.
this is good beginers..... but i don't know. little kid is better than most of adult..... think...
i rated it 2 star..
cuz i want complete stealth mode program, means you can not find remove option on control panel.

Version: SpyBuddy 3.4
"It's alright ... you'll have buy it to enjoy it"
Pros: It actually logs AOL instant message conversations - in comparison to other programs that only record AIM.
Cons: During the trial period there is a pop-up that comes up everytime the pc is restarted letting everyone know they are being monitored. Program can be found under PROGRAM FILES as(ExploreAnywhere) and if u download the UNINSTALLER its right on your "ALL PROGRAMS" List it can be see by others.

Version: SpyBuddy 3.4
"Seems ok on my XP machine but not on 98SE"
Pros: The tabbed menu is a pleasure to use and the program appears to do everything it says it does.
Cons: I first installed this software on a machine running XP which did not have an internet connection and it appeared to install and work fine. However, I have also installed it on another machine that was running 98SE and it all appeared to be fine until I attempted to connect to the internet at which time I got nothing more than a blank screen or an instant reboot. Removing SpyBuddy has since restored my system back to its original state without any side effects. Anyone who installed this program is advised to include the uninstalled when prompted to do so.
