    Yes, and no. The government agencies no longer use Carnivore, simply because widely available tools have become better and more useful. Quite frankly, a linux machine running tcpdump, snort, nessus, nagios, mrtg, rrdtool, ntop, and other packages can provide any degree of granularity you wish to see.

    http://www.spectorsoft.com/ is a website that sells great programs that you can install on your computer

    As for the goverment the last that I have heard they still use the program but I don't think they do. They have gotten with AT&T and are now capturing all the data and voice communications that go threw there service. AT&T have violated several laws by doing with without a court order and they are getting sued quite badly.

    If you want a piece of hardware to capture all things typed on a computer they sell a link that you plug in the back of the computer keyboard that will record everything you type. But I would go with the software it might cost about 70 bucks but you will get EVERYTHING.
