Main features:
STEALTH features
- Invisible in the Dock.
- Invisible in the Force Quit Menu.
- Practically invisible in the Process Viewer.
- Creates a single or daily log file.
- Optionally sends log files to you via email.
- Adds date, time, and active application in the log file.
- Can be renamed and the icon can be changed to avoid detection.
- Can secretly record everything that is typed on the computer!
- Prefs are optionally encrypted.
- Log files are optionally encrypted.

GENERAL features
- Recording Keystrokes The most obvious feature is that KSR records what you type.
- Recording Screenshots KSR also takes a snapshot of your screen and optionally emails it or saves it to your hard drive.
- Saving via File or Email KSR will record keystroke activity to either a text file or to an email address. Choosing KSR file saving feature will result in a text file that is saved to the hard drive for later retrieval. The KSR email feature will send the log files to you via email and will never save the log files to the hard drive, making detection more difficult.
- Smart Preferences Instead of storing the preferences file under a name that is easily found, the preferences file will be automatically created based on the name of the KSR application name. If you rename KSR to "SPAM Filter" the preferences file will be named "SPAM Filter Prefs ".
- Smart Log File Names In the preferences, you have the option of setting the log file prefix, suffix, and base. Setting the prefix to "KSR Log ", the suffix to ".txt" and turning on the base will create a log file named "KSR Log 20020319.txt". The number represents the date, in this case, March 19, 2002. This gives you the choice of having one large log file or one log for each day the computer is used.
- Additional Log Information KeystrokeRecorder includes the name of the active application or process when the key was typed as well as the date and time.
- Adjustable Key Queue You can adjust the length of the KeystrokeRecorder key queue from 5 to 30,000. A smaller queue will cause more frequent saving to the hard drive or more emails sent.
- Automatic or Manual Log Cleaning The backspace and delete keys are pressed very often. KSR gives you a choice of removing these tags from your logs or emails automatically or with the prefs editor.
Enhancements:
- Added the option to take screenshots and have the saved to the hard drive or sent via email.

Enhancements:

• Added the ability to change the SMTP Server Port. Previously, this was hardcoded to port 25.

A 21-day fully functional trial is available from the company's download page.

SnapTop Pro allows the user easy and instant access to the desktop/Finder from any application.
You often work with many applications at one time, and switching back and forth and hiding applications to be able to view and use items on your desktop and/or in the Finder is a drag (to say the least)...

This gives you instant access to the root of your desktop, without closing your open windows. Release the keys and your windows are fully open again.

- Snap to desktop! From any application you can now snap to the desktop and hide (not close or quit) all other applications! What a time-saver! A simple, quick keystroke does it all... From any other program! (default key is F10)
- Snap back! Another keystroke conveniently reverses the process, showing all your apps again at once! Remember, SnapTop never quits any program... Just hides them. (default key is F11)
- Collapse... Likely the most used of the features. Pressing this key combo will collapse your windows into title bars for as long as you hold down the combo.
