What is AlterEgo?

[Becky]

Sorry I couldn't find the description. But I think it will be helpful if a brief description is included at the beginning of the section.
I posted in here because I was not allowed to do it inside the AlterEgo section.
Thanks again,
Becky.

Of course not, Becky . I don't really have the time now, but... I think Alterego is a project. It's for Spybot-SD if I'm correct. The reason you cannot post in there is because you're not a developer or working in the project. It is in public view. If it was something private, it would be... simple, hidden from public view.

What I would like to know is why would you even browse there?

I found a description post for alterego here:
http://forums.spybot.info/showthread...ighlight=Alter
That post includes a link to a flash tutorial:

After reading the links provided by Zenobia, AlterEgo is really a program.

Zenobia, can you tell me exactly what the AlterEgo is used for. After reading the explanation, I'm still confused. Thanks.

It is pretty straightforward info.What part of the post do you not understand?

It was late last night and I was up doing work and on this forum. I just skimmed through the contents.

So basically AlterEgo enables the user to runs programs at Admin-level? Nice.
