Re: Notified if a program is installed

I was wondering whether there is a way to get notified (e.g., by
email) when someone installs a program on a computer (e.g., a
keylogger). Can this be done without the installer know about it?

While it may be possible (however likely easy to circumvent with portable
apps, etc) - I would say it would be better to just not have it as an
option - meaning no one can install as they do not have the rights
necessary.
