Spyware finding help.

They just cant understand that we do NOT want them surfing bebo and myspace and trademe all day at work. They seem to consider it their god given right.

Whereas most companies look down their figurative noses at anyone who dares to leave on the dot, at the end of their contracted working day...f-ing hypocrites.

We work on maori time lol. Work is actually really cruisy about stuff like that, at least in the areas i've seen (with 1200 staff nationwide I cant speak for the whole place). But being a maori organisation with strong cultural links, employees get alot of leeway.

Reading all this stuff makes me realise that I work at a awesome business.
I feel sorry for all you people!

has your freind thought about what would happen if his boss finds out that he has installed his own program on the machine? The company might want to know what is going on but I imagine would take a very dim view of someone installing there own software to check out what the company is doing.

I agree with whoever mentioned it earlier - the contract (or at least some IT policy) probably prohibits this. At the end of the day it is doubtful that the work software would record the password and even if it did would they really do anything with it?

This sounds like one of those times he just has to suck it up - at least he has internet access even if it is monitored.
