Message Spy 4.3

Message Spy 4.3 is now available. This version is the first update in almost two years and it consists of only a couple minor changes. It is not imperative that users of a previous version update to this version.

Beginning with version 4.3, Message Spy is free software. The users who purchased Message Spy in the last 6 months (since November 1, 2007) can upgrade to Chat Watch 5 for free. Please contact us (via email support@zemericks.com or live help) and send us your name, email address, and order ID (if you have it) and we'll change your registration to be for Chat Watch 5.

For those unfamiliar with Message Spy, Message Spy logs instant messages sent and received on AOL Instant Messenger 5.x. Message Spy is a small, light-weight program that runs in the background without any visible windows. Unlike Chat Watch, Message Spy will run on Windows 98 and Windows ME. Message Spy is equipped with password protection, stealth capability, hotkey support, and easy to view logs. Logged chats are organized by date, time, and by the screen names of the users that participated in the chat. Message Spy requires only 64 MB of RAM and only 5 to 10 MB of disk space.

The first version of Message Spy debuted in 2003. (Back then 64 MB of RAM and 10 MB of disk space was considerably much more than it is today. :) We're very pleased that users still find it to be a very useful program and we hope that by making it free that you can share it with your friends and family.
