AskWoody LoungerThanks for the suggestion. There are several reasons I’d like to install this kind of software .. my mom frequently forgets her passwords (won’t write them down), and then can’t get in to several of her favorite sites; I’ll often go down for the day to take my mom out shopping and run scans while I’m there because I can’t get either of them to do it regularly, and I’ll discover that an icon (or three) has disappeared off the desktop .. and they haven’t a clue where it went, and don’t know how to get into the program without it (I’ve tried explaining about the Program list in Start, honest); I’ve had to clean off some nasty crap over the years, and know it’s not sites my mom’s visiting that’s the problem, so I’m interested in where my brother’s going. And while the PC is an hour away, it does indeed belong to me .. and I have no intention of being sneaky about loading a program to oversee what the two of them are doing. I’ve spoke to both of them about the possibility.
It seems that you are a good boy of your mum, if you want to help her remember the passwords, you can download a RoboForm and install on her computer, it is a kind of tool which can record the passwords, automatically fill the forms. If you want to know what sites she has visited, you can see the web history.
If you have more requires, then you may consider to use a keylogger. -
