Have a wireless network?
 

i slapped one together just recently, have 2 laptops and 2 desktops running now.

i was wondering, is it possible to monitor the actions on the other PC's?

Id like to be able to track the URL's that my other PC's visit.

anyone know how?

thanks,

rich

Sure, that shouldnt be any problem

wanna give me a hint? lol

spyware

;)


Well, one thing would be the routerlogs or a proxy, another - some software like eblaster.

We use a program called SpyPC on our kids' computers. It monitors sites they visit, logs keystrokes, plus you can ban certain words, sites, etc., and it runs invisible so they never know it's there.

nice

Worried what your GF is doing on the other machines?

Thanks. Being pornographers as we are :Graucho , we know the dangers that are out there. We are very open with our kids, but still don't believe that they should be exposed to the dangers on the web.

Oh yeah, SpyPC also emails us at midnight every day with a log report of all activity on each of their computers. Great program, and it was cheap, too. $30, I think at Best Buy... maybe Staples, I don't remember.

mainly my little brother, i dont want him doing what i do lol

let the damn kids do what they want...

My friend and his wife thought the same thing...lol

www.Softwaresells.com has parental controls that regulates where people can go, and http://www.4ispy.com/ watches everything they do, although it is a bit of a resource hog

Sounds like a good program, think I'm going to check it out tomorrow for install on my childs pc

if kids want to find something online... one way or another they do it.

I ordered some wi-fi hardware online last week so I can network my desktop
and laptop. Hopefully the gear will arrive in the next couple of days.

Probably a bit premature for me to offer wi-fi tech advice to others :winkwink:

Some advise from my experience.

Always have one computer hard wired to the wireless router.
