Spy Software for Windows Mobile

Retina-X Studios has introduced a call and messaging activity-monitoring service for Windows Mobile smartphones. "Mobile Spy" enables employers, parents, or other suspicious people to monitor SMS (Short Message Service) text messages and call details online in real time, according to the company.

SMS, a feature available with most mobile phones, allows users to send and receive short text messages. Now, thanks to Retina-X, if you don't trust your employee or your child, you can monitor their text messages and other related activities on their smartphones**.

The company says its software is completely hidden from view. Following setup on the mobile device, the application records all SMS text messages and calling information, and then silently uploads logs to a designated private account on Retina-X's webserver. Thereafter, the messages and activity logs can be accessed over the Internet. Mobile Spy runs in "total stealth mode," the company claims.
