IamBigBrother is supposed to help you keep your kids from exploring and navigating the dangerous realms of the Internet. Teenagers; no matter what you say to them, they think they know how the universe runs. You can educate them, lecture them, or take some other creative approach to teaching them the importance of Internet safety, but you can’t always get through to them. As the saying goes, “Raising teenagers is like nailing Jell-O to a tree.”
IamBigBrother is a basic monitoring application. It provides you with features such as monitoring and recording keystrokes, programs run, visited websites, chat rooms, instant messaging, emails, and it will even capture passwords. It’s invisible to the Task Manager and so its presence should not be noticed by the “victim.” Additionally, it can capture screenshots when user-specified words are typed. IamBigBrother also offers, for an additional fee, a web-based component, which can be useful when your teenagers are spending a majority of their waking hours (which probably exceeds your waking hours) on the computer.
