About Phishing Sweeper, Protect against forged or spoofed spam e-mail. The Phishing Sweeper provides e-mail protection, website protection, alerts and logs. It keeps you aware of what's happening on your computer without being overly intrusive, and enables you to go back at any time to investigate past alerts. You can archive log files, view log entries or set the event alert level. It responds to two types of alerts: Spam Mail Alerts and Spam Site Alerts. The Spam Mail Alert is a popup window that is displayed when you recieve an e-mail that is suspicious. The Spam Site Alert is a popup window that is displayed when you try to navigate a site that is suspicious. It enables you to set a password to prevent anyonebut you from shutting down or changing your security settings. You can also back up your existing security settings to a registry file so that you can restore them later. You can specify whether you want to be alerted to all security events, or if you only want to be notified of events that are likely a result of phishing activity.
