How to Remove CyberSitter

CyberSitter Threat Level: CyberSitter is a threat

CyberSitter is commercial software that lets the installer monitor the computer use of another person. CyberSitter can be installed for legitimate reasons, such as a parent wanting to watch the Internet activity of their child, but CyberSitter can also be misused by people as a spying tool. CyberSitter can be used to filter Internet activity, filter network traffic, block specific content, track the websites visited, monitor violations of filters, log online chats, and CyberSitter can be remotely configured and accessed. Unless your mom installed CyberSitter onto your computer, I say break up with whoever installed CyberSitter onto your PC.

Do You Have CyberSitter?

When you’re infected with badware — whether it’s CyberSitter, spyware, adware, a Trojan, or a virus — there are a few key symptoms. Have you noticed…

  • Slow computer performance: It just takes one parasite like CyberSitter to slow your computer dramatically. If your PC takes longer than usual to reboot, or if your Internet connection is unusually slow, you may be infected with CyberSitter.
  • New desktop shortcuts or switched homepage: Badware like CyberSitter may change your Internet settings to redirect your homepage to another site. Badware can even add desktop shortcuts to your PC.
  • Annoying popups: Badware can bombard your computer with popup ads, even when you’re not online. Through these popups, you may be tricked into downloading more spyware.

Note: In any CyberSitter files I mention above, “%UserProfile%” is a variable referring to your current user’s profile folder. If you’re using Windows NT/2000/XP, by default this is “C:\Documents and Settings\[CURRENT USER]” (e.g., “C:\Documents and Settings\JoeSmith”). If you have any questions about manual CyberSitter removal, go ahead and leave a comment.

Want to save time finding CyberSitter files? Download Spyware Doctor, let it find the CyberSitter files for you, and then manually delete CyberSitter files.

How Did You Get CyberSitter?

Wondering how CyberSitter ended up on your PC? If you’re infected with CyberSitter or other badware, perhaps you were using…

  • Freeware or shareware: Did you download and install shareware or freeware? These low-cost or free software applications may come bundled with spyware, adware, or programs like CyberSitter. Sometimes adware is attached to the free software to “pay” developers for the cost of creating the software, and more often spyware is secretly attached to free software to harm your computer and steal your personal and financial information.
  • Peer-to-peer software: Do you use a peer-to-peer (P2P) program or other application with a shared network? When you use these applications, you put your system at risk for unknowingly downloading an infected file, including applications like CyberSitter.
  • Questionable websites: Did you visit a website that’s of questionable nature? When you visit malicious sites that are fishy and phishy, badware may be automatically downloaded and installed onto your computer, sometimes including applications like CyberSitter. I recommend you use Firefox web browser, if you don’t already.

Understanding CyberSitter

If you’re infected with CyberSitter, you should know what you’re fighting. I’ll explain some definitions related to CyberSitter.

CyberSitter May Be a Key Logger

Keyloggers are software or spyware that record every keystroke you make typing on your PC. Some keyloggers are installed in order to capture your usernames and passwords, bank account numbers, credit card numbers, etc. Some keyloggers can take screen shots of your computer monitor and your activity, watch emails and your online chats, and more. Keyloggers are sometimes legitimately installed to monitor an employee’s or child’s computer activity. But even when keyloggers are installed without malicious reasons, keyloggers work secretly, without your knowledge.

Because of keyloggers stealth methods, keyloggers, even when installed without malicious reasons, may put your personal and financial information at risk. It may be a good idea to remove CyberSitter and other keyloggers.

Keylogger Prevention

The best way to prevent being spied on through a keylogger like CyberSitter is to use your common sense and some of the keylogger prevention methods below.

  • Use Anti-Spyware Software: Most anti-spyware software is able to detect and remove keyloggers, whether the keylogger is commercial or not. It’s always a good idea to use anti-spyware software to regularly monitor your system for keyloggers and other spyware.
  • Use a Firewall: Using a firewall can protect you and your computer from keyloggers that are spread maliciously through worms, viruses, and Trojans.
  • Monitor the Programs Your Computer Runs: Whether or not motivated by keylogger prevention, you should always watch which programs are installed on your PC and which are running regularly. If your computer is located in an area easily accessed by other people, watch for devices connected to your USB ports. Keyloggers may easily be installed this way.
  • Use a Network Monitor: A network monitor will alert you whenever an application on your PC attempts to make a connection to the Internet. This can help you prevent the keylogger from contacting the anonymous attacker and sending him or her your personal information.
  • Automatic Form Fillers: Automatic form fillers, including those intergrated into your browser, can help prevent the damages of keylogging as the programs let you access sensitive accounts without typing your user information. In order for this to work, you’ll need to create passwords in a way that is invisible to keystroke logging and screenshots.
  • Web-Based or On-Screen Keyboards: On screen keyboards, mostly used for financial websites, can help protect you from keyloggers stealing your username and passwords. In these web-based keyboards, you typically use your mouse clicks to “type” a password on an on-screen keyboard. It is still possible for a keylogger with a fast screenshot feature to capture this information.

Using the above methods can help protect you from keyloggers, but keyloggers can be almost impossible to detect. You may want to scan your PC for keyloggers regularly, especially if you share your computer with anyone, or if it’s in a semi-public area.
