If you are using Internet Explorer, have a look at the History list (View -> Explorer Bar -> History IRC). Alternatively check your firewall logs, if you don't have one install a free one firewall (something like Zonealarm).
Hope this helps,

Hi,
that did help, thank you. Not sure how the firewall works though. It shows a time, but it doesn't show what sites they are on.
Also, does the history show for all users? What if they are on with their user and I check the history through mine, is it the same?
thank you |

Glenda - You might want to give Index.dat Suite a look: http://www.it-mate.co.uk/support/idsuit....asp#known (that's the info and d/l page).
It's pretty simple - after you d/l & install the program (get the "Full install" program if you're uncertain of whether you have the VB6 runtime files referred to - the "Basic Install" if you're sure you DO already have them), run it and click on "Find". It will search for and display all the index.dat's on your computer (including other users').
On the list that comes up in the main screen, click once to highlight an individual file, then right-click it and select "View file contents" from the context menu. Make sure you let it finish if the file is large, then you can scroll down it.
You'll be amazed, especially if there's teenagers using it (males, anyway! <g> ). Pete

That is very helpful, I'll try it. It is so important that we don't let the internet be their teacher.
Appreciated!! |

Any of the files that come up after a "Find" should have the account name that they're found under as the second item of information in the results list (after the second back-slash). In the screenshot, you can see that the one high-lighted is much bigger than the others - you would (after having left-clicked on it once to highlight it) then right-click that one once and left-click "View file contents", let it present the results in a new window, then scroll through the results to see what sites were visited on that account.
It's not going to tell you what "Searches" were done (but depending on what browser/search engine you're using, that info may be available using other methods).
Hope this helps. Pete
*Mods - This really needs to be in another forum other than this one, I would think. Pete
