To be able to use my college's internet connection, I had to download Bradford Dissolvable Agent[Caution: Executable File]. Did it just check my security settings or is it something that they can use to watch me? In HS, there was a program that was installed on all the computers, and the teachers could see what was on your screen at any time and if you were doing something you shouldn't, they could lock your computer. I'm worried it's something like that.

It is designed to delete (Dissolve) itself after the scan.

I believe the program used by your high school was something like NetOP by Novell (that is what my school uses.) However, I found out how to disable it, and you needed the security password :<. I do not think a college would force you to install something like that on your PC.
