Activity Logger

Activity Logger, developed by SoftActivity, is a Security program tailored to ensure Privacy on computers running Windows 7, and 8. The latest version is 3.8 build 2176, and it operates in shareware mode. One of Activity Logger's standout features is its ability to operate invisibly, logging the activities of users without their knowledge.

The program can inconspicuously record visited websites, email communications over POP3/SMTP, IM chats, and keystrokes across all applications, including passwords. This makes it remarkably effective for monitoring how your child, spouse, or employee uses the computer. It produces comprehensive logs showing every application run and the duration of their use.

With the help of IntelliSnap technology, Activity Logger automatically captures screenshots at specified intervals, offering a convenient slide show format for later review. This functionality emulates a video surveillance camera, ensuring nothing goes unnoticed.

The logs, securely encrypted, can also be emailed silently to the monitor when the computer gains online access. This ensures that one can review the captured data from a remote location. Furthermore, the program runs invisibly in the background, and its logging engine cannot be terminated through Task Manager without administrator permissions—reinforcing its robustness.

Among its essential features is the ability to configure a warning message that pops up at startup and an optional system tray icon, which can be tailored according to monitoring preferences. The configuration utility of Activity Logger is secured with a password, ensuring only authorized users can modify the settings.

Activity Logger 3.8 build 2176, with its main executable file named alogcfg.exe, continues to support older versions like 3.8, and 2.0. This versatility ensures compatibility across various user requirements.
