CATCH A CHEATING SPOUSE

To be sure, many people in relationships remain true to their partner. However, it's estimated that 70% of married men have cheated on their wives. Married women are not much better; with current estimates that say 60% have cheated on their husbands. The statistics for unmarried cheating lovers are more difficult to come by; but we can assume they rival the figures above.

Cheating lovers come in all shapes and sizes; there is no blueprint for a cheating lover. They are married and unmarried; men and women; old and young. The reasons they give for cheating are many and varied. In today's society, temptations are more rampant than ever before.

And yet, for the savvy individual, there are tools available that can remove the doubt and fear from a relationship. When looking at these devices, you want to consider a number of factors. Some of these include:

•  Applicability.  You want a tool that captures the information you need. Do you suspect clandestine email exchanges? Passionate phone calls? Secret rendezvous?

•  Privacy.  Is the device designed to safeguard your privacy?

•  Cost.  Effective tools can cost from a few dollars into the thousands. What is your price point for security?

TopConsumerReviews.com has reviewed and ranked the best tools designed to catch a cheating lover. We hope you find these reviews helpful in bringing you peace of mind.

This device provides real-time GPS tracking of your vehicle. Simply attach the SlimTRAK to your car, power on your home computer, and you can see exactly where your vehicle is at any time.

This unit has no outside antenna and can be installed in an unobtrusive place like a trunk, under the seat, or under the hood. It comes with a waterproof magnetic case so there's no worry about damage should you decide to position it under the car itself. However, the manufacturer does not guarantee the item won't fall off and won't replace it if it does. It's small, tipping the scales at a modest 7.2 ounces (without the batteries), and it's just a little longer than a standard deck of cards. Four AA batteries run the unit for up to three months, or an optional vehicle power adapter can be purchased for around $70.

To track the vehicle, simply access the SlimTRAK web site (http://www.slimtrakgps.com) from any internet-active computer, type in your password, and a detailed map with tracking information appears. You get the position of the car within 40 feet of its location, along with its speed and distance traveled. While the vehicle is in motion, the system records the position of the vehicle and transmits that data via wireless modem to SlimTRAK's database every 5 minutes - but can be configured to update as frequently as every 2 minutes. Website fees are based on usage, so at .15 cents per locate, every two minutes, that's more than 4 dollars an hour and the costs can add up quickly. Frequency updates every 15 minutes should probably suffice for most applications. The SlimTRAK database stores the last 120 positions, so you can view them at your leisure. To save battery power (and usage fees), the SlimTRAK goes to "sleep" after the vehicle has stopped moving for 30 minutes. When the vehicle starts moving again, the automatic reporting function restarts. In addition, this unit can also be configured to "call" you or "email" you when motion is detected, so you don't have to be tied to your computer waiting for something to happen. Because the system uses GSM (cellular network) as well as GPS, it only works in areas with cellular phone service coverage.

For those individuals that desire real-time information on where their partner is, you can't do better than the SlimTRAK. It is the best product to display easy-to-read information about where your car is at all times. However, if you don't need the real-time information, or find the cost a little too steep, you may be more interested in the TrackStick.

The miniTRAK Data Logger is a tiny location tracking device. Instead of real-time tracking, this product logs the location of where it has been and allows you to review the information later.

Using the latest in low-power GPS receiver technology, miniTRAK records date, time, location, speed, heading and altitude at pre-set intervals configured from a PC. To download the information off the miniTRAK, you have to retrieve the miniTRAK itself. This might get a little complicated; but if you have the opportunity to place the device, you'll probably have the opportunity to retrieve it as well.

To view the travel history, you connect the miniTRAK to a Pc via an integrated USB port. Detailed mapping and 3D satellite imaging reveal exactly where miniTRAK has been for the last seven days. The miniTRAK can record 4000 records (1 MB of memory) with date, time, longitude, latitude, speed, direction, altitude and other information. Free software included with the device integrates with most third-party mapping programs and services like Mapquest.com, VirtualEarth.com, maps.google.com and Microsoft Streets and Trips. You can even see 3D images of where the device has been. One thing to keep in mind; you cannot place metal objects between the device and its satellite system, or it may not be able to accurately record its position. Obviously, setting it on the dashboard defeats the purpose of covert operation, so instead it can be placed somewhere inconspicuous, such as the glove compartment, or under a car seat. The small size of the miniTRAK lends to its ability to go unnoticed.

The recording interval is adjustable from between 1 and 15 minutes. The batteries (2 AAA) last 16 hours using full power and up to 7 days using low power. When using the low-power mode, it's critical that the device be placed in a good location. If the batteries should die while in use, you don't lose any information. Simply insert new batteries into the miniTRAK and all the informationcan be retrieved.

We liked the fact that miniTRAK is no bigger than a usb-drive or similar device. Due to its size, the miniTRAK has the potential for other uses as well -it can be placed indiscreetly into backpacks, briefcases or such to log the travels of people outside their vehicles.

If you are in need of tracking movements but can live without the high cost of real-time devices, the miniTRAK may be perfect for you. Dependability, portability, and low-cost (compared with other GPS tracking devices), earns this device a high score.

SniperSpy is a fabulous piece of software - if a little scary. Do you have a pc that you'd like to monitor, but can't physically get to, in order to install monitoring software? That's no problem with SniperSpy.

With this program, you first create a "module" that will be emailed to your recipient. This module is an .exe program that can be sent as-is, or embedded in another file, such as MS Word or WinZip.

Your next step is to create an email with your module as an attachment, and send it to the recipient that has the pc you wish to monitor. In order for the module to be installed, the recipient must open your email and run or load your attachment. However, they will never know that your attachment actually contains software that monitors that pc.

Once your module has been run, that pc is now being monitored. All activity - keystrokes, screenshots, chat sessions, everything - will be logged and posted online to your SniperSpy account for your review.

It's just that easy.

The emails produced by similar software programs offered by other vendors are blocked by a pc's firewall. SniperSpy has the unique ability to completely bypass the windows XP firewall, to help ensure your module is deployed successfully. However, for precautionary reasons, it's suggested that your email be sent from an anonymous email id, so it cannot be traced back to you.

So what makes this program so scary? Simple - it works. For legal reasons, the pc that you monitor must belong to you. However, the potential for misuse is present - nothing stops a more unscrupulous person from sending their module and attempting to monitor any pc on the planet.

But for legitimate monitoring activity, this is the best software to use for those pc's that you can't physically get to. SniperSpy receives high marks for a clever, and effective, solution.

Modem spy is a utility that allows you to automatically, and secretly, record telephone conversations on your computer.

Modem Spy has everyday-life applications, such as recording conversations with merchants so that ordering and pricing details are not "confused" later on. It can also be used as an answering machine in the normal sense. However, it also has the ability to secretly record private phone conversations, such as those between a cheating lover and their paramour.

Modem Spy can be used with most Windows operating systems - 95, 98, ME and 2000. Compared to many voice recorders out there, Modem Spy's "footprint" is tiny -- a mere 240 kb - so small you might think something is missing when you save the files. Extra attention has been paid to managing white-noise levels, which can be an issue with voice recorders of this type.

Modem Spy has everything you would need for remote recording and storing. One-click e-mailing of recordings, and caller ID with pop-up window which allows you to make a quick note to remember the call's contents. You can convert your recordings to nearly any voice format, such as MP3 or WAV. It's a simple process to access your records and the caller ID pop-up window over a Local Area Network (LAN). For truly secretive operation, there is a Super Spy option for stealth recording. This allows both incoming and outgoing calls to be invisibly recorded on the pc. Alternatively, an optional remote-party notification is available. It's a good idea to check before using the Super Spy option to ensure compliance with local and international laws.. Tech support is via email.

One note - Modem Spy requires a modem to be attached to your computer. Modems are very inexpensive these days, and a good one can be obtained at major retail stores for around $20.

If you have a need to hear the phone conversations taking place when you're not around, Modem Spy may be the answer for you.

Talurdey, a talented writer and internet entrepreneur, offers this ebook on How to Catch a Cheating Lover. The product downloads easily and has a convenient 60-day money back guarantee.

The material contains good information on how to catch a lover that you suspect is cheating. Included is his "notorious" Infidelity Quiz, -- score a 7 on this, he says, and you're virtually guaranteed that your partner is cheating on you. Talurdey leans toward sensationalism and drama on his websites and in his book, as he claims to offer freedom from "struggling every day with sadness and uncertainty", and suggests customers take advantage of his offer so "you can be certain that "they" are not exposing you to an embarrassing disease or doing all those intimate little things with someone else". We prefer more substantive information rather than emotional ploys.

The bonus items contain good information, but you can find similar material through free internet searches.

Overall, this product delivers what it promises. However, you can find more substance, and for less cost, with our top-rated selection.
