Guide Review - Cyber Spying-Tracking Your Family's (Sometimes) Secret Online Lives

As a parent, I appreciated "Cyber Spying-Tracking Your Family's (Sometimes) Secret Online Lives", especially because I know that there are wackos out there who prey on unsuspecting children on the Web. This book gives readers the resources to follow activities online and erase any traces of spying - which is really the more complicated of the two.

This book is really aimed towards the beginning cyber spy, with tutorials as basic as opening a command prompt, but then goes deeper into the mechanics of cyber spying with detailed information on sniffing, keystroke logging, and more.

Again, if you're at all uncomfortable with spying on people than this book is not for you. The authors did not write this book as a tell-all on how to harass people; rather, this book is primarily for people who are concerned about their loved ones' habits on the Web. This could cover any multitude of scenarios:

  • a pre-teen girl who is being stalked by a potentially dangerous instant-messaging "friend"
  • a wife who is concerned her husband is having an affair (and vice versa)
  • even good for systems administrators who need to figure out who is downloading questionable material

Basically, lots of good tips here that will help anyone do more than a bit of cyber spying. Remember, as Spiderman's uncle once said, "With great power comes great responsibility."
