Noun
- Encoded computer instructions, usually modifiable (unless stored in some form of unalterable memory such as ROM). Compare hardware.
- 1958: The "software" comprising the carefully planned interpretive routines, compilers, and other aspects of automative programming are at least as important to the modern electronic calculator as its "hardware" of tubes, transistors, wires, tapes and the like. — The Teaching of Concrete Mathematics, John W. Tukey, in The American Mathematical Monthly, vol. 65, no. 1 (Jan. 1958), pp 1-9.
- 1953 As originally conceived, the word "software" was merely an obvious way to distinguish a program from the computer itself. A program comprised sequences of changeable instructions each having the power to command the behavior of the permanently crafted machinery, the "hardware."

What software can you use to I have a Logitech webcam and
have tried using the software
that came with it. The problem
is, the Logitech software
screws up settings in other
software I use.
Is there a third-party
software program out there
that anyone can recommend?
Thanks!

What software are there to I am looking for software that
can track the websites and
webpages a user has visited.
For example, I am operating a
wireless router that connects
5-7 users to the Internet. I
am interested in what are
these people are doing with my
wireless service, as in are
they abusing the wireless
service that I am providing to
them?
I am interested in how much
time they are spending on the
Internet, what websites they
have visited or the webpages
they are surfing and if they
are downloading materials.
I know that such software are
available on the open market
but so far, I'm not sure where
to find them. I am hoping for
examples of such software that
I can use.
Furthermore, I also wonder if
the users on my wireless
router can block such tracking
software or If they can tack
my attempts to follow them or
if they will be aware if I am
using such software to track
them.
I undertsand that large
networks and corporations
routinely use such software.
Are such software very
expensive?

One solution is to setup a transparent proxy. http://www.squid-cache.org/ This can be done as to not interfere with access but can provide all sorts of data including every web access or you can restrict certain sites if you really want to. There are several add-ons that have been done for squid to provide reporting from the logs that it can keep. A side benefit is that using caching you can maximize bandwidth and make browsing effectively quicker for sites that are visited frequently or by multiple users. This is basically a free solution. Any, say, old pentium machine with decent network cards, a fair amount of memory, HD space and Linux loaded on it can handle this. You could also use something like tcpdump (a packet capture utility) which can monitor *all* traffic going through the network. This too is a free program. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T cpdump http://www.tcpdump.org/ The average user would have no idea if you were using any type of 'tracking' method. And all but the most knowledgable would be aware of certain methods (eg tcpdump can be quite difficult to determine if it is being used depending on how it is used). While it would be pretty easy for someone to realize that they are going through a proxy (eg. a random error with the proxy accessing a page) this can be excused as being in place for the speed benefit. Many corporations probably use some commercial software, mainly because they have a budget and don't care so much about cost as they do prettiness and nifty charts and reports that a program can make for them with ease. There is plenty of open source software that can do just as much. For more possibilities do a search on freshmeat or sourceforge. |
