Hello everyone. My father-in-law's boss is constantly looking at pornography at work, and that's when he's not asleep in his office. It's a smaller company, and most people report to this guy. There are a few people that know of what he does, but not many seem to want to do anything about it. His office is on one side of the shop floor, with one window with blinds that are closed most of the time. It would be difficult to get an X10 camera installed in his office without him knowing about it.

What I'd rather do is get a log of the internet sites he visits during the day and the times at which he goes. I've checked his computer during off-hours, and he's set it up to not save history, which is fine though, since I know there are plenty of proxy / firewall apps that'll keep a log. I also noticed he had links to "Secure Favorites" and other sites that talk about anonymizing surfing habits. heh.

Here's what I'm looking for... I'd like to install a proxy / firewall app on the computer that'll track web surfing habits and log them to a file. It would be even better if that file would be emailed off every evening. The catch is that the proxy / firewall app needs to be completely transparent. The user can't know that it is running. The user's level of computer competance isn't too high, however, he WOULD notice a new icon in the taskbar, so it's gotta be somewhat stealth.

Anyone got anything? Thanks in advance.

this is not very nice but how about executing a passworded trojan horse on the pc he uses. then connect to it with another computer when hes online and take a couple of screen shots. or log things etc.

Not only am I guessing this is illegal, I don't even see how why you're gunning to hunt this guy down. (Do you even work there, or does your father-in-law work there?)

Hello everyone. My father-in-law's boss is constantly looking at pornography at work, and that's when he's not asleep in his office.Um, he's the boss. If your Father-in-law doesn't like it, he should find another job. He certainly should not be conspiring with you on ways to illegally spy on his boss' activities, and you should not be asking JSF members to assist you with something that is clearly illegal.
