What do I do to find out every place my pc has been?

Like old owners and shit? be more specific so we can help you...

Every time i sell a computer that i've used i format it and low pass wipe it so that no one can retrieve info then i reinstall everything and sell it...

I'm talking current owners.Are there specific files I need to look for?

You're reffering to all the websites that have been accessed? If so they should be located in the .dat files, and in the swap file I think.

Go to download.com and look for spector2.0
and it will snap images and key strokes.
Its cool because you can put in stealth mode and there is no trace thats its even running on the machine.

Websites and what not are located in the history folder, and as long as the person had them enabled, in the cookies (yum)

The folders are located at different places on different versions of windows. I've got Win2k, and you probably don't have it, so my cookies and history are in a weird place because of multiple users.

I'm sure someone else could tell you the location of the two folders.

kymbreleigh.first read the comments made about spector2.0 before you download it!
To me it doesnt sound to stable.

for old internet sites and shit u could search c:\windows\temporary internet files\content.IE5, type all this in at the find prompt and u get all the shit that youve been to *slashes must go that way....*

*****Man code prohibits me from answering your questions. ******

WAIT......

You are trying to bust your man looking at porn aren't you?

Guys you are breaking man code.

hehe, which is why most guys don't like to answer chicks...

I don't even know what the hell is going on here. I thought i did til i got to the replies. She says she is talking about current owners...but wouldn't they be the current owners of their computer? And what the hell did that keylogger thing have to do with it? Maybe i just misread ALL of it, but whatever. heh, i am pretty sure she won't post anymore after those two, unless in here.

Think about it man. This is a chick wanting to know every where HER computer has been on the net.... Why would anyone care???? Unless is is a chick checking up on her man. Let me put it this way. Would you all the sudden need to find out what site you home computer has been on? What reasons do you think a person has to have such an intrest. This is an over controlling girlfreind or wife.

I am a wife you guessed it and a mother of three I work a lot and I need to know my kids, who are very young ,have not been anywhere they shouldn't go.They may be young but they know how to search on the internet.
As for temporary internet files they get deleted on a regular basis and I was asking about hard drive.
I've been to the USER file and found interesting things but there doesnt seem to be any dates and it is in code(most of it).
I get told all day long that I am super hot so if I am so hot why would my man be cheating?
And why are you guys so quick to protect?

Because, its our code to one another... Not just other guys, to others of our kind, mainly Hackers/Phreakers.

If you want to "stop" them from looking at stuff, go get NetNanny http://www.netnanny.com just don't tell them the backdoor code is ~frontdoor. lol

thanks for nothing!

Looking at internet porn and masturbating isn't exactly cheating...Unless you're in somewhere like Iran where they can actually cut off your right hand I presume.

I mean, you could cut off his right hand too, but that would cause some problems. My sister tried to catch my brother-in-law by looking at the history, so I just showed him how to clear the history all the time. I'm now formally ashamed that I even mentioned anything helpful.

Sorry kym.

Look I know this situation by heart. Do you realy think you can control what your man looks at? Do you realy want to. You see a hot man, you tink to yourself... The guy is cute. He is the same way. By checking up on him you are spying on the man you love. By doing this you are not trusting him to love you. Lust is lust. Men get turned on by naked picture, women it is more on an emotional level. Don't let it get to you.

I wana know why a chick can go get back massages, foot rubs and shit like that and guys get bitched out for looking at porn. If it realy bothers you so bad.... Search for naked dudes and leave it in the history. I think you will find your man to be cooler about it than you are acting.

lady i must say, my parent have tryed to block me have tryeied to keep me off the comp, it doesnt stop me, jsut give in... your kids are gona look at porn and shit and theres really nothin u can do, and really u shoudln bother trying cause its normal.... unless of course there looking at shit like osama's reqruitment page on the web....lol

*shrug*

Help one side or help the other side. Whether one side is good or bad... Help the hacker break into a network, or help the security guy protect his network... Or help some kid look at porn freely on the internet, or help the parent monitor the computer against such actions... I don't see a difference. I see two sides in a struggle with very personal, arguably legit, reasons to combat the other. Who are we to say which is the good side? Or who has the more sound reasons? We are biased, and we do not know what is best for every situation - much less so when we're not even involved in the situation and don't even know SECOND-HAND what the situation is. Freedom of knowledge is a two-sided coin. Freedom of knowledge is the only goal have. Abuse of knowledge is pretty much all I try to avoid when determining what help I should or should not give.

IMHO spying on your husband's habits is destructive on a relationship which may be perfectly healthy otherwise - but spying on your children's habits may provide valuable info in molding their lives in healthy ways.

I think you should get a system monitor possibly from http://www.iopus.com and installed it with the full knowledge of your husband.

P.S. Consider this bit of strange advice. Sometimes it is best that if your husband DID cheat on you - that you never know about it. Mistakes can happen, and it would be a crying shame if you destroy an otherwise happy marriage by finding out. If you ask around you'll find that in several long-lasting happy marriages one or the other has cheated on their partner. It may still be a secret! Don't destroy the chance for such happiness.

heh, 40% of all women cheat on their husbands befor age 40. Scary hu?

BTW install net nanny, or any other progy like that, or a monitor program and your kids WILL end up on sites like this and WILL outsmart you in the long run.

I'm probably one of the few guys who'd forgive my girl for cheating on me. But it really depends on if she's sorry. I go by a 2 strikes you're out system. I don't agree with how people all freak out if their partner had sex with another person - even if they were repentent and they really did love you and not them. I mean sure, it would upset me, but I would still be reasonable.

Kym dont let these weirdo's get you down.....this is what they do the majority of the time any ways.....all they do is b!+ch and complain about we tah did things and most of the time they dont complete the argument which was brought up in the first place....I mean look at this topic....you asked "What do I do to find out every place my pc has been?" and they all start jumping in and talking about something else...some thing that you didnt even ask about. The majority of these guys are judgemental, horney and liars....except for gizmo (probably because I have a..???..on him)
This is a NEWBIE'S forum guys....lets try to help and not criticize, judged or make them feel stupid for asking......after all we 'ARE' NEWBIE'S!

Fine.. here is my advise. Look up the term Keylogger. That is your answer.

It all makes sense now...sort of. It is obvious she was talking about looking at porn and shit, the current owners thing threw me off. Then when she said "im talkin harddrive" i don't even know what to think. I don't know about that chick though...to me it seems more likely that it is just some girl that doesn't want her parents to find out she was looking at porn. not calling her a liar, just saying. crazy cookes.

and oh yeah, hey giz do you think you could give those guys with the gay javascript and flash shit ads a shove? I think they are going a little slow, it has been awhile since you said you emailed them about it. you know, the fucking gum ball shit. ktnx

I got a reply, its fine, leave them alone.

(totally out of topic: I know ya probably dont give a ----, but you guyz just grew a hell of a lot in my eye)

Why is that? Cause we don't wana help some chick spy on her husband? I am wondering why you say that.

le4rner, you, when ya said "do you really want to"... kind of proves you actually think. (oh and just a q: you ever read human psychology, or did you just come down to that "emotional level" thing yourself?)
I'm not here to praise you - it was just a...umm... pleasant surprise.
(I was actually referring to SRage.)...

ps: (u did help her, how could you have grown by "not helping"?)

human psychology... Never read it. Just know peolple and their actions. Everyone has a reason for everything they do. Even if they don't know why they do it. Some things are just.... Easy to know why they are doing them. Like there is a standard for some actions to be based on.

Hey, i'm the head shrinker here!

Na...Gizzy is the shrunken head of UGN Security.

/me makes a cocky grin under Saiph's praise



I give a lot of personal advice to my friends and whoever asks, and have read quite a bit about personalities and body language and even handwriting psychology (forgot the term). I've considered being a psychologist, but figured that I wouldn't actually care about strangers coming in day after day asking for my advice. I don't have the patience or the compassion required. I just find social and mental psychology to be very fascinating.

okay guys how do you feel about child porn?I have evidence that it is on my pc and has been accessed.we are not talking playboy here we are talking serious probs.please help.I have children and I need to protect them.

To each their own, its illegal and talking about it on a public forum that is looked over by federal officials isn't the smartest thing to do.

Delete it then.

As I stated before, go and get NetNanny or another like program.

Beat the shit out of them, if you can't trust them on the computer take it away from them, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize this.

If there is child pornography on your computer, since it is your computer and in your home you and any other individual over the age of 18 is responcible for it, you could also have your children taken away by social services on the account it shows "proof" of child abuse (woot, its been so long since i've used that crap i picked up from when i worked there).

PS, chances are you're just bullshitting us and trying to get us to bust your husbands nads, and if hes the one looking at little boys/girls/hampsters i'd reccommend cocking the shit outta him.

If you really want to bust your child *cough*husband*cough* for something, then figure out how to do it yourself. Don't expect to come on one of these sites and get all the answers. If I asked one of these questions, they'd flame me into charcoal dust ( I love you guys ).
Everyone here expects everyone to figure things out on their own. We just help eachother to find it. We aren't spys and we don't help spys. Keeping this code alive isn't about not helping out. It's about making people learn. I personally dont care if its your hubby, children, or your ******* grandmother. They have told you what you need to do to prevent whatever is going on from happening again. You needn't know what happened before, cause it can't be changed now, and yes we are saving your husband's balls from being squashed into pancakes, cause it's not right for us to get into a situation that isnt our problem.
So please, don't get pissed off at all of us because you come to interrupt the people in this community, with the expectation to have us all teach you things that you ought to be learning yourself. I don't think its all that fair that we are made the bad guys because you don't know how to look through files on your computer.
Take the time to understand that we do not advocate spying and probing other people's computers, we just like learning about how computers work. It's not like we do this all the time, and we refuse to help you just because all the guys here dont want to violate their male code.
However, if it is child porn, you dont need to find out what sites they've been on, you need to spend the time you would be yelling at us with to take your child/ren to a psychiatrist.
If it is just your husband looking at naked chicks on the internet, then lay off. I'd let my boyfriend/husband look at porn all he wants. It's no big deal that he likes looking at naked women. What(straight) guy doesnt? In fact, I would be very lucky that my husband liked naked women and wasn't a closet gay.

SR, term is graphology.

It isn't her kids gizzy. It's her man. Has been all along. Child porn is sick. As the father of a baby girl I can understand your parental instint. Check you P/M's

no, wait, I don't understand. You already have proof your husband looked up child porn on your computer? So what do you need us for? You can't secure your computer against child porn browsing. Go confront your husband or contact the authorities.

Saiph: yeah, graphology. It didn't help my conceit any when I discovered that small handwriting is an indicator of great intelligence. from a scale of 1 (small) to 5 (large) in largeness, I measured at a 2. Einstein had a 1. Funny that is one of the few things I remember.

i have small handwriting too. woot.

Please, someone close the topic. I am so entirely tired of hearing about this lady. She is apparently looking for an oportunity to find an opportunity to bust her man. It's ridiculous, and I don't think that any of us should have to get into this.

I have pretty small handwriting too, but not really small.

Hey, what about messy vs. neat writing? What does that mean?

A lot about graphology I found to be common sense if you think about it. The way you write reflects who you are. If you don't give a damn about your handwriting and write very messily, then it can be an indicator of many things. It can say that you're a messy person by nature who doesn't give a damn about much. Or it can simply mean that you are a "doer" type person who has a busy schedule and gets things done quickly.

But I specifically remember that if you do correct punctuation, grammer, spelling etc... then you tend to be very prim and neat in your life as well - paying attention to detail, and doing everything to the best you can do it.

Also, I remember that if you have "perfect" handwriting, than it can show you as a bland and colorless person. You were shown how to write, and you never deviated from it and gave it personality.

People with extravagent handwriting - very large, with lots of bold strokes - you are the same in life. You are probably a business exec who dresses very well to make a statement. Everything about you is persona and flair.

Keep in mind that mood changes also affects your handwriting.

Hmm. I don't fit any of those.
I tend to have perfect spelling and punctuation when I write. I've always been good with vocabulary and spelling, etc.
My writing is neat, but not too neat. I think it's a little sloppy sometimes, but it's definitely readable.

just to get you intelligent men down a little --> small letters also indicate a low self confidence (einstein wasnt what you would have called overproud of himself either) hehheh

Just 1 theme I think you'll find interesting:
Check the sizes of the circles you make (o, a, g,). Now compare their sizes to the loops (y, g). If the loops r bigger, then you're a materialistic kind of person.

(A little help coz I know you're not gonna get it: probably _very_ good at sex...)

I've studied it (and still am), if ya want info, email.

heh, if I want info, I'll go look it up. But yeah, I remember what you said about the low self-confidence thing. Actually, it's something very typical for meloncholy type people. They can be very brilliant, but also, they tend to be depressed a lot and very low self confidence. I used to be a lot more depressed and stuff, but since then, I've become very confident in myself. I don't see how it can be any other way, with accomplishment comes confidence. *shrug*

Actually, I disagree with Saiph. Suredly Einstein did not have low self confidence. He may be self-effacing, which is typical of meloncholies, but he would've gained a certain amount of self confidence. This is unavoidable.
