No. Spyware is software that is a)installed without your knowledge and b) transmits personal information about you to a third party without your knowledge or consent. SmokingGun.Net does neither of these things – obviously, you know you have installed SmokingGun.Net and SmokingGun.Net only stores log files on the computer it is installed on or on another computer selected by you. SmokingGun.Net sends absolutely no personal information about you to any third party.
