Spy-The-Spy Description

Spy-The-Spy is a lightweight Windows application whose purpose is to help you monitor system folders for any new EXEs or DLLs that are created or modified. It comes in handy especially if you want to detect malicious utilities that are running on your computer, as well as send the selected items to the quarantine. Basic functionalityThis unobtrusive tool runs quietly in the system tray, so it doesn’t interfere with your work. When called upon, it reveals several configuration settings to tinker with. Spy-The-Spy gives you the possibility to create a custom list with the folders that you want to monitor and include subdirectories in the process as well. Folders can be added into the primary panel using the built-in browse button, so you cannot rely on “drag and drop” operations. Additionally, you may delete the items that you want to exclude from the monitoring process. As soon as you specify the directories, the tool automatically keeps an eye on them and notifies you each time EXE or DLL items are added or modified. Quarantine optionsWhat’s more, you can also send suspicious utilities to the quarantine area, while having the possibility to delete or recover items, clear the list with notifications with just one click, as well as view information about each detected action, namely filename, action type (modified or added), and location. Last but not least, you can save the log, which contains data about the monitored folders, to plain text file format. You should pay extra attention to the items that you want to move to the quarantine and delete them, as they may play a key role in ensuring your applications are running accurately. Bottom lineAll in all, Windows Protection offers a simple software solution for helping you monitor system folders for EXE or DLLs changes.
