1. A system of real time monitoring and control of networked computers, comprising:
- a monitoring computer unit capable of being communicatively coupled to a network system; and
a client computer unit capable of being communicatively coupled to the network system, the client computer including a client application that can detect states in the client computer and transmit the detected states to the monitoring computer unit via the network system to permit detection of an unauthorized software program or unauthorized behavior within the client computer unit, wherein the detection of the states includes calculating a maximum base count for entries in a defined registry segment in an internal registry in the client computer unit, and wherein the client application detects states in the client computer by detecting a modification of registry configuration data in the internal registry in the client computer unit.
