Spector 360 records all domain names and URLs visited by the computer user. Using the Dashboard, you can track which web sites are getting the heaviest traffic and who is doing the most surfing. This helps to reduce non-work-related activities such as shopping, banking, and idle web surfing. You'll be able to see at a glance if web sites are being inappropriately accessed and take steps to block them or warn the user against future infractions.
To view web site events:
Open an Events window for Web Site activity and view the Events pane. The following fields are recorded for each event. You can print and export this data for any user.

Start Time: Time the site was initially accessed
Computer: Name of the computer where the recording occurred
User: The name of the user logged into computer (column hidden by default)
Program: The name of the program used (Internet Explorer, Netscape)
Active Time: Time activity was occurring in the window where the web site was open
Focus Time: Time the window with the web site had front focus on the desktop
Total Time: The total duration of connection to web site
URI: Uniform Resource Identifier, such as HTTP or HTTPS
Domain: Internet domain name (google.com)
URL: Uniform Resource Locator address of the web page (http://www.google.com/pagexyz)
Window Caption: The text displayed in the top bar of the browser window, which usually contains the name of the web page being viewed
URL Type: The type of URL accessed (column hidden by default) Web, Redirector, Redirected, or Post Form Data
To sort the records by any field:
Click any field column header to order the records by that field. For example, clicking Focus Time would sort the records by most (or least, if you click again) focus time. Hold down the Shift key and click on column headings to sort by multiple fields (e.g., Focus Time and Domain).
To select how many records are shown:
Use the tree in the upper-left Navigate pane to select a higher (more records) or lower (fewer records) branch in the Event Group. Click Load Events to see the records for the group branch in the Events pane.
To view a Screen Snapshot of the event:
Select the recording in the Events pane and click View Screen Snapshots. Or,
Right-click on an event record and select Event Snapshot.
To display a recorded web site:
Right-click on an event record and select Go to Website in Browser or simply click the URL in the URL field.
To block a recorded web site:
Make sure the Domain column is displayed. Click the Show Columns buttons and select "Show
Domain Column" so that it has a checkmark next to it. Right-click
on the event record and select Add to
Web Filtering Category. The Select Web Filtering Category box opens.
Add the domain to a Custom Category (list of domains) that you are currently
