VERO BEACH, FL - June 3, 2008 - SpectorSoft Corporation, the worldwide leader in Internet Monitoring and Surveillance Software, announced the availability of a Success Story in which Spector 360, its flagship employee monitoring software product, is shown to both identify and end widespread PC and Internet abuse at F&B Communications, Inc.

The Success Story, "Spector 360 Identifies and Ends Widespread Abuse at F&B Communications," describes how General Manager Ken Laursen perceived an email and Internet abuse problem at the Wheatland, Iowa company and used Spector 360 to pinpoint and put an end to the problems.

"I can't believe the difference Spector 360 has made," said Laursen. "Now I don't see ANY abuse. It's a huge change. The abusive emailing and the web-surfing have just STOPPED."

`In addition to restoring order in the workplace - all but two employees were cited for PC activity and Internet abuse -- Laursen estimated a quick return on investment.

"Very early in my use of the program, it became clear to me that if I were to take just one of the employees abusing work time surfing the Internet and stop them by using Spector 360 - which I did - the software would pay for itself in one year or less," said Laursen.

How It Works

Spector 360 records employees' web sites visited, emails sent and received, chats and instant messages, keystrokes typed, files transferred, documents printed and applications run. In addition, through a first of its kind surveillance-like camera recording tool, Spector 360 shows in exact visual detail what an employee does every step of the way.

Further, Spector 360 takes the recorded Internet and computer activities, feeds that information into a database, and provides more than 50 easy-to-read reports - with unlimited customization potential -- to answer questions IMV Projects previously found problematic, such as:

• Which employees may be leaking company confidential information via removable media like USB flash drives, CDs, and DVDs?
• Which employees chat or use anonymous email services like Hotmail and Gmail?
• Which employees are spending the most time surfing web sites?
• Who is sending the most emails with attachments?
• Which employees are printing sensitive documents?
• Who is arriving to work late and leaving early? Who takes long lunch breaks
• What are my employees searching for on Google, Yahoo, and MSN?

Spector 360's Bottom-Line Impact

Laursen provided perhaps the most telling, bottom-line description of Spector 360's impact at F&B when he said:

"Spector 360 is well worth the money. The value is good, the quality of the program is good. Like most businesses, we need to cut costs ... to be lean and mean. Spector 360 is helping us achieve that goal.

"I wish I had Spector 360 a long time ago."
