Hooker:FAQ

1. Does Hooker Personal 2.50 has an uninstaller?

No, it doesn't need one. All files will be stored in the same folder to where you unpack Hooker. It only comes as an archive, without installer/uninstaller.

2. Does Norton AV 2005 and Beta Defender have any compatibility issues using it on my own personal XP?

Only some anti-viruses and spywere-detectors will see Hooker as a suspicious application, because it has a code that allows capturing keyboard activity. I don't know how Norton AV 2005 and Beta Defender will see it, you have to try it your-self.

3. Does it run on start up?

By default, it runs only when you lunch it. But, in the settings, there is an option to automatically run Hooker on startup.

4. Does it launch from a standalone executable? Or installs it-self to program folders?

It doesn't install it-self. There are 2 files required: "Hooker.exe" and "HookLib.dll". They will stay and run from the folder to where you initially unpack them. "Hooker.exe" is the main executable, while "HookLib.dll" library will be loaded dynamically into memory. If you think that Hooker will spread out like spywere/virus - you are getting a wrong impression of it, it doesn't spread out anywhere.
