SpectorSoft announces immediate availability of Spector Pro 6.0 – an upgrade to the world’s best selling software for monitoring and recording PC and Internet activity

SpectorSoft, the worldwide leader in Internet Monitoring and Surveillance Software, has begun shipment of Spector Pro 6.0, the most advanced release of the company’s ground breaking product for Windows platforms. Spector Pro 6.0 is designed for parents, who need to monitor children to keep them safe on the Internet, and small businesses, who need to monitor inappropriate PC and Internet usage in the office.

Spector Pro 6.0 builds on award winning technology by adding new reports for MySpace activity and Top 10 summaries, and adding a new tool for Internet searches. Spector Pro 6.0 also introduces powerful Chat/Instant Message blocking to selectively block conversations by contact name to protect children from online predators and improves Screen Snapshots to create an even more accurate visual record.

“Parents tell us every day of their great concern about the dangers posed by MySpace to their children, and there are stories in the press almost daily about adults soliciting and meeting children they found on MySpace,” states C. Douglas Fowler, president of SpectorSoft. “Spector Pro records your child’s MySpace activity so you will know exactly what he/she is doing while on MySpace. You will see when they update their profile, post pictures, make comments about other MySpace users, send messages to other MySpace users, invite someone to be a friend, accept an invitation from a new friend, and much more. Anything your child does on MySpace, Spector Pro will record and you will be able to review,” adds Fowler.

Spector Pro automatically records everything that happens on a computer. Sometimes, however, parents or employers don’t want or need to see every detail. They just want a quick summary. Fulfilling that need, Spector Pro 6.0 adds Top 10 Summary Reports, allowing them to see days or weeks of recordings at a glance.

Spector Pro 6.0 adds a new tool for reviewing Internet searches. By seeing BOTH what they looked for and the web sites they subsequently visited, one is able to determine their intentions. Is a teenager researching projects for school, seeking out free music or porn, or looking for new friends online? Is an employee seeking information on professional growth, considering a job change or being distracted from doing work? In a matter of seconds, a parent or employer will be able to see what they have been searching for, and whether they search for this only occasionally, or on a daily basis.

SpectorSoft has also made improvements to the powerful features introduced in previous versions. Now, parents can selectively block instant message conversations by contact name, allowing children to continue to chat with friends, but not strangers. Instead of just every 30 seconds, Screen Snapshots are now also taken based on user activity, such as mouse clicks and page scrolling, giving an extremely accurate visual record, like a surveillance tape.

Spector Pro has become the gold standard in Internet monitoring and surveillance software because of its ease of installation and use, and its comprehensive recording capabilities of just about every kind of PC and Internet activity. With Spector Pro parents or employers will know who is using their PC, what they are doing online and ultimately… take back control of the home or office computer.

Spector Pro 6.0 is priced at $99.95 and is immediately available for download at www.SpectorSoft.com or by calling toll-free (888) 598-2788. Existing customers can purchase an upgrade at a discounted price. Also, available nationwide at CompUSA, Frys, Micro Center and other select retailers.
