How to Manually Delete PC Eyes Spyware from a Computer

PC Eyes is a program used to spy on a users Internet habits.

PC Eyes, also known as Covenant Eyes, is a commercial spyware program. Once the program is installed on your computer, it tracks and records your Internet browsing activity and sends the information to an email account. This email account belongs to whoever installed the software, such as a spouse or parent. Because PC Eyes is a commercial spyware program, it can usually be uninstalled through your "Add/Remove Programs" tool. If this does not work, however, a more technical method exists for removing the program.
