Hello people.
I have a friend who claims he can view everything i view myself on my computer when he is surfing the net. He says he has a program which gives him a history of which sites i have been on, i.e he can tell me how long i watched a video on youtube for. I often delete my internet history and change my dynamic IP address, and i wonder if this is enough to stop him. Lol, i just find it a bit strange  Any help and suggestions would be great. :) |

He's probably winding you up.

If not he would have to installed some form of software or virus to do this. Do a spy-bot or ad-aware scan as well as a virus scan and if nothing shows up you can be sure its rubbish. My System: Hybr!d

Hmmm.....
But he actually can tell me which sites i viewed. I remember him saying ' you watched blah blah on you tube for 2.58 and then blah blah and knew exactly what i had watched etc. I know it sounds naiive but he must be using something lol. |

Also do this:
Disable Remote Desktop and Remote Assistance in Windows XP Disable all remote access and remote desktop options. |

I don't know how to do a spybot/adware scan to be honest.
I'm a novice when it comes to this sort of thing! Thanks for your suggestions! |

Download, run, update, scan. Let me know if it finds anything, to be honest you can remove everything it finds, its all bad. |

This is more like a lesson for me. I do use Spybot with a good antivirus but I never thought that some one could actually see everything from other's PC.
