I advised my direct supervisor, who is the CFO and he advised me we can't
allow it and to let the user know, which I did. Then I referred him to
NewEgg for a wireless card for his home PC and whatever he does from there
is none of my concern. :-0

I also agree, absolutely not, do not install a Keystroke logger or assist in
any way on this. But if its your company laptop, and this is disallowed via
policy ( Electronic Communications Privacy Act also barrs this) then you
better let the user know plain and clear this is not allowed, and refer to
your policy/HR group about possible administrative actions/termination
procedures if this user keeps going down this route.

Personally I wouldn't have done it.  That is not work related at all...and
there might be legal or HR issues with that.

One of my users is in the middle of a nasty divorce with his wife. He's
trying to install a keylogger on his company laptop so he can get access to
her email (she uses his company-provided laptop at home) and prove she's
been cheating. Obviously Vipre doesn't want to let him install it, but I
overrode Vipre and told it to unquarantine it. My question is, did I do the
right thing or should I make him uninstall it?
