Important Information

Advice from someone that has been there...

I was being cheated on. I knew that I was. But I wanted to believe her when she told me she was just talking to friends. I would still toss and turn at night wondering who she was talking to. Then...she was gone. Don't wait!! Do something now to save your relationship. It is better to know the truth now, than to delay until it is too late. Please read the disclaimer and do not break any local or federal laws. BE AWARE: When I finally did read the emails and the chats, it was the most painful thing I have ever been through. Prepare yourself for the worst and hope for the best! My heart goes out to anyone that is going through this soul-wrenching process. Good luck, peace and happiness to you all. ---John

Go to the Documents Folder and look at the most recent files they have opened. Many times you can find a lot of information about what they have been doing by checking there.

The Documents Folder

When you open most files in Windows, it records this information in your document history (Go to Start/Documents). Keep in mind, that if you are searching for suspicious files on your PC, and you open them... the file name may appear in the Documents Folder.

Opening the Temporary Internet Folder

Pages and images you view on the internet are saved in a folder on your hard drive for quicker loading next time you visit the site. Cookies are also stored in this folder. Once you have the Temporary Internet Folder open, go to "View" and select "Details". This will show you the web address that the temporary files were received from. Under the menu item, "View/Arrange Icons" you can sort the files in different ways.

Q.) How do I open the Temporary Internet Folder in Internet Explorer?
A.) Go to Tools/Internet Options. Under Temporary Internet Files, click on Settings. In the Settings window, click on View Files.

Q.) How do I open the Temporary Internet Folder in AOL?
A.) Go to Settings/Preferences. Under Organization, select Internet Properties (WWW). Under Temporary Internet Files, click on Settings. In the Settings window, click on View Files.

You can open most files by double clicking on the icon.

Files with a name similar to "anyname@something.com" are called cookies. If you double click on these files, they will probably open in Notepad and you will see a lot of gibberish and some readable text. There is usually not much usable information in a cookie, you can usually get more info from the file name and/or web site name. Please note that finding a cookie, for example, from a porn site, does not necessarily mean that someone went to that porn site. They could have just got one of those annoying pop-ups. However, if you see more than a few cookies from the same web site in the temporary internet folder, than it is much more likely that someone went to that web site on your PC.

Using the Find Files or Folders Window (Windows 9X)

Go to the Start/Find/Files or Folders menu.

Under the Name and Location tab leave the "Name" and the "Containing text" fields blank. Set the "Look in" field to "Local Hard Drives" or "C:". The "Include Subfolders" box should be checked.

Click the Date tab. Set the "Find All Files" field to "Last Accessed". Then set the how far back you want to check for files accessed. Click the Find now button. A list of files will appear. Double click the mouse on any file that looks suspicious. If the file does not open or you get a message box that asks you which program to use to open the file, then just close it and try another file or try to open it with notepad. Try this technique again with the "Find All Files field set to "Modified".

007 Write All Stored Passwords (WASP) - WASP will display all passwords of the currently logged on user that are stored in the Microsoft PWL file.

007 Password Recovery - Windows 9x and NT systems allow a convenient storage of frequently used passwords, such as the password of your dial-in ISP or FTP connection. However, since you no longer enter the saved password manually, you tend to forget them. What are you to do when you need to know one of the saved passwords ? The password is staring right at you, but is hiding behind a row of "*****" asterisks. This nifty utility allows you to reclaim your password: Activate the utility, drag the "key" mouse cursor on the password field and your password is revealed instantly directly in the password field(s). Since 007 Password recovery removes the asterisks directly in the password field is also a great help to make sure you type a (complicated) password correctly. Limitations: This utility works well with most password screens you will encounter on a MS Windows system, such as the password fields on the ISP dial-up dialog, within CuteFTP or Outlook Express. However, it does not work with applications that do not actually store the password "behind" the asterisks e. g. the Windows NT User Manager. The software works on Win 95, 98 and Windows NT (not Windows 2000). Download Password Recovery now

Monitoring their chat conversations can be accomplished most efficiently by using the Keycatcher device or the KeyLog Pro PC monitoring software. You can record everything they type and play it back later. The software records what people are typing. The KeyLog Pro software and Keykatcher are virtually undetectable by most people.

You may also get small pieces of the chat by using the Find Files or Folders method and looking for recently accessed files (See above...Searching for Files).
