3. How secure
is SpyAnywhere?
SpyAnywhere is secure as you want
it to be. SpyAnywhere can be configured to filter IP addresses
so only certain IP addresses are allowed access to SpyAnywhere.
Make sure you choose a unique IP address for SpyAnywhere as well!
You can choose to limit access as well to SpyAnywhere by disabling
features that you do not want to be used remotely - such as remote
file system browsing.

4. What is the
minimum configuration that is able to run SpyAnywhere?
All you need for SpyAnywhere is
a Windows 9x/ME machine. It does not require a web server, since
SpyAnywhere is its own HTTP server. The only thing you need to
have running on the machine is TCP/IP.

5. How do I
get the IP address of the PC if it is on dialup?
You can configure SpyAnywhere to
deliver the IP address via email every time the IP changes - just
use the IP Delivery Via Email feature!

6. Who will
have access to SpyAnywhere?
The only user that will have access
to the SpyAnywhere software, locally or remotely, is you - or
whoever you give the access password and ip address to. SpyAnywhere
cannot be terminated locally without your administrator password.
You can also configure SpyAnywhere so only certain IP addresses
can access the server.

7. How do I
access my remote PC if it is behind a firewall?
The easiest way to access a computer
that is protected by a firewall is to map one of the firewall's
ports to SpyAnywhere's port (default is port 80).
For example:
FIREWALL IP address: 172.120.0.1
SpyAnywhere machine: IP address: 172.120.0.10, Port: 1000
In this case, you should pick a port on the firewall (say, 4000)
and map it to 172.120.0.10:1000
Having done the above, you will be able to access the computer
with the URL http://172.120.0.1:4000
