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
