You know that Computer usage monitoring software thing thats Takes Screen shots Every minute and saves them?? (Like it spies on whats going on on your computer)... Well for some reason I think someone has installed somethiing like that on my computer as when I opened my C Drive I noticed a folder called "D" and it was full of screen shot images that had time stamps in the corner of them like "16:36" "16:37" "16:38" etc etc (going up every minute)... Seen as this software is designed to be un-noticable when installed, Is there any "Spy Bot Search and Destroy" type software that you can run to detect them ??

Yes in this case you can because It's built on the award winning Giant antispyware. If you're able get the original one.

BTW, posted in the wrong section.

Listen to skidrow. If there is such app. running on your 'putter you will see it in your taskmanager. I would also make sure you dont have a keylogger installed. If somebody installed a screen-logger I dont see why they wouldnt install a keylogger. Also if the application was installed over the net (opposed to your friends/parents playing with you) then most likely you have a trojan that helped this whole process.
If you do find any funny app running like that I would seriously consider reformating, changing all your passwords and upgrading you security.

I think its all safe, I cant see a dodgy process running, Plus, I just noticed that the last image taken was last year before christmas... I will do a full system scan with Anti Vir and Panda Online Scan, and I will scan with that Giant spyware thing, Spybot SandD and Adaware Will That Giant Scanner thing Locate a Keylogger as well ???
