Starting Spy Sweeper
You can start Spy Sweeper and display the main window a number of ways, depending on the options you selected when you installed it.
Start Spy Sweeper and display the main window using one of the following methods:
- If Spy Sweeper is running in your system tray (you should see the Spy Sweeper icon
in the lower-right corner of your screen), do one of the following to display the Spy Sweeper main window:
- Double-click the Spy Sweeper icon.
- Right-click the Spy Sweeper icon and select Maximize from the pop-up menu.
- The Spy Sweeper main window displays. This is where you can change your Spy Sweeper settings and run sweeps. For more information, see Understanding the Spy Sweeper Window, Running Sweeps, and Customizing Spy Sweeper.
- Click Min to close the Spy Sweeper window, but keep Spy Sweeper running in your system tray and monitoring your computer.
- If you did not select the Run Spy Sweeper Now option during installation or you closed Spy Sweeper completely, click Start, point to Programs, point to Spy Sweeper, click Spy Sweeper or double-click the Spy Sweeper icon
on your computer desktop.
- This starts Spy Sweeper and displays the main window.
- If you are using the trial version, a reminder window displays letting you know how many days are left in your trial. To continue using the trial version, click Continue Trial. To buy Spy Sweeper, click Buy It Now. If your trial period has expired, click Buy It Now to buy Spy Sweeper. You must be connected to the Internet for the Buy It Now button to work.
Note: If you want Spy Sweeper to start automatically when you start Windows and run in your system tray, click Options in the icon panel, click the Schedule tab, and select the Load at Start-up option. We recommend using this option.
