how do i find out what my friend downloads on my cpu. after he deletes it?

a friend of mine told me there is a way to find out what was downloaded even if he deletes all of it.

first it's your son... .. now it's your friend...

Well.. If your that interested... look at the "library" tab in LW...
Incomplete file names might give you some idea too... (incomplete files)
Or... look where he saves the files...

Other than that... .. your (Friend/Son).. really covers his tracks....

You can install a "key logger". It will record all his keystrokes and then you can look at the log and see whats going on. I've done it before

there's undelete programs also you can get.

PC Inspector (File Recovery) is a programme that retrieves deleted files(One of many) When you delete a file(With Windows) you are only 'Chopping off' the identity tag as it were, or the label,the actual file is still intact on your hard drive,and can be retrieved intact and in working order(i.e. still playable)
So if you want to see what has been deleted recently,use this or a similar programme to recover lost files(Usefull if you have accidentally deleted a file)
You must do this soon after the files are deleted,or they will gradually become overwritten by other stuff,depending where they are on your disc, and become more degraded. So if you want to be a detective,and see exactly what someone has been up to,try it ! (How do you think law enforcement agencies find all this stuff on hard drives)
Hope this helps,
