Hi, I need some advice please

My daughter is now 12yrs old, she uses MSN chatrooms and messenger, she has been told all about the precutions to take and best practice when using these, her Mum and me have noticed that she has started switching programmes when we enter the room. I dont want to come over heavy and let her think we dont trust her so whats the best covert / keystroke programme to use. I need one thats simple and free and wont be detected, also its got to be eay to remove so that if alls ok i can remove it

Thanks

Three options, from best to least tack.
1. Talk to her
2. Move the PC to somewhere under your gaze.
3. Visit Covert Ops at http://www.majorgeeks.com/downloads6.html and select an appropriate program.

Hi

Also depending on how cluey your daughter is on the MSN settings you could turn on the option to save all conversations, yeah I know many may say about privacy issues and letting someone have privacy in conversations in not enabling this fuction on MSN but I see the parental side of having to have some reasurance that nothing untoward is going on.

To do this click Tools > Options > Messages and turn on Automatically keep a history of my conversations and dont tick the one below it "show my last conversation......" as that will alert your daughter to the log being present as it on run of MSN will bring up the last conversation into the main window!, you can specify a folder in your documents to save this log.
