Social Spy is a very powerful monitoring solution - even more so because you can configure it to run in TOTAL STEALTH. Using Social Spy's built in stealth mode Social Spy will not be visible anywhere to the user. Social Spy will not appear in the task list under any Windows platform, and Social Spy will not appear in the task bar.

Starting Stealth Mode
Social Spy's stealth mode is VERY easy to configure - simply click on the "Settings" button on Social Spy's user interface and then "Configure General Settings". From there enable the 2 options:
"Load Social Spy in ACTIVE monitoring mode" and "Run Social Spy in Stealth-Mode"
If you wish Social Spy to run when you turn your computer on, in stealth mode, simply enable one of the Windows startup options as well!

Stopping Stealth Mode
To Stop Social Spy's stealth mode either press CONTROL+ALT+SHIFT+M on your keyboard (all keys at the same time), or run the program file "nostealth.exe" that is installed in your Social Spy program files installation directory. Once you do this you will be prompted for your Social Spy password - enter it and Social Spy will stop monitoring and show itself. Click on "Start" to restart the monitoring!
