Software to monitor computer users

KarlW. · 11-11-2009, 02:01 PM

I am wondering if there is a program or a website that teaches you how to monitor a computer. I use my computer at the office and several people use it. I believe that some innapropriate material was downloaded and it gave my computer a trojan. I would like to set seperate accounts for each user and password protect it. I would also like to be sent an email or to track who is looking at innapropriate material, perhaps even be able to block certain sites. Is there any program / technique that allows you to do this?

Thanks in advance for all of your help. I really appreciate all that you do.

Hi:

If you want to set up separate user accounts, just post your question in either our XP forum or our Mac support forum.

As far as your question on being able to monitor, VIA Emails, places the PC visit, we can't help with that. We are not allowed to help with programs that monitor a computer useage by others.

Hi Karl

You could install Windows Steadystate on the XP PC as you can restrict user accounts seperately and set options to block sites and even block certain parts of the PC.
