PCWeasel
Overview
From the developer:
"PCWeasel version 2.5 is software designed for Windows 9x/NT/2000/ME that allows you to monitor computer activity easily and efficiently. PCWeasel is used to record and save keystrokes and take screen captures automatically. What makes PCWeasel unique is its ability to capture images and save them in JPEG format thus conserving hardrive space with maximum readability. Another space saving feature is a built in idler that only allows recording when the computer is in use."
