sweetie
i have a question about browsing history?
ok my daughter who is only 14 has a computer but mine has been down so i used her computer..i went into the browsing history on IE 8 is what she runs.anyway i was looking for a site i had been too..
when i pulled up the history i found some sites that where not so good like sites with info on drugs etc not to mention porn.
now ive always trusted her so i never put any restrictions on her computer.
so in that i tried to talk to her and asked her..all i got was mom you dont know its cookies..i am smart enough to know where the cookies are..then she said its ads..
my question is ,is only what web pages that you have visited are in the browsing history..is there any other way for sites a a person did not visit to get into the history..like for an example she says she goes to site to get free games etc,,ad banners are there..she said she didnt click them but that they can get in the history...or is it only what that person using the computer has visited that is int he history...?
it is true that i am not the most knowledgeable person on computers i know enough..
i found that strange and as a parent im worried..
i borrowed my friends computer and went to the sites she had been to before those questionable ones and it did not put those other porn and drug sites int other history.
i don't buy the story and honestly need to know so i can take action.she is young and i cant as a parent let her do those thigns..
any help is really appreciated...thanks fro any help

12 AnswersSoftware1 decade agocan a virus put pics files?
can a virus put files and open them in your recent documents on xp.
3 AnswersSecurity1 decade agocan a hacker or a free game site do this?
well can a hacker put and open pics nude ones on your computer would they.in the recent documents folder.
also would a free game site known for porn advertisements put files on your computer then have them show up in the recent documents folder?
i dont think so but im being challenged on this and its about trust so id like some help.we have avg and zone alarm .there is no Trojans etc.
i just dont get it.see i found things opened in the recent docs 3 months ago then today saw the same pic in the history image search.
so i dont see why or how a hacker would go in put files( like .zip files) then open them in your computer.or how a free game site would put files yeah maybe tracking cookies.also the pics names were named either explicit things or names of girls.so i dont think they were opened like what this.even if so then whats the harm in saying so.anyway my husband and i are the only ones with access to this computer.also he tells me any access to internet then this can happen.he hates it and i dont agree with this thing.so i just trying to get this .any help.
5 AnswersOther - Computers1 decade agois it possible or likely?
first off i have a computer only 2 people use it.i have windows xp on it.
is it possible to have hacker come in and open files so it would be on your my recent documents folder.
i ask this because i found a .zip file in there that i dont have and some other not so good things.the other person who has acess to the computer says that they didnt put them on ther ethat it must be someone hacking in to the computer .
now this makes no sense to me.the questionable material is the only thing i have saw on the computer.every other file folder etc on the recent documents list i knew of or used opened etc.so is it possible or even likely to happen.
i just dont see why someone would go and put things ob the computer and open them.pictures they were nothing else.
the other person says as long as you have internet it can happen.we have avg on there and zone alarm as well if that helps.
can it?plz any help i appreciate.this is bugging me and causing a conflict....
6 AnswersOther - Computers1 decade agoquestion about my recent documents folder?
this mat sound strange but i am not too knowledgeable about computers .i just know the basics.anyway i found a folder awhile back named my recent documents.there were things on there that i didn't recognize.things i hadnt opened.so my question is .is that folder only thigns the user opened files etc.can a hacker or someone else outside of your house computer put things into that file.
for an example if you didnt open files or didnt knowingly have them on yur computer can or is there a way someone else could put them in the recent docs?or is only from the user files that have been used opened recently?
again confusing to me sorry.
