Solve : Find browsing history?

1.	Solve : Find browsing history?
Answer» I would like to know if there is a way to find what my kids have been on if they have deleted the browser history. Is there a way to find out where they have been? ThanksI have never tried restoring to an earlier date on XP to find old browser files that were deleted. Though it does seem practical, I could be WRONG here. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/support/sysrestore.mspx Quote from: street1 on December 12, 2007, 04:14:10 PM I have never tried restoring to an earlier date on XP to find old browser files that were deleted. Though it does seem practical, I could be wrong here. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/support/sysrestore.mspx I cant saw whether it will work or not, but I can say it WONT be the safest/greatest idea, as if you installed or modified your system, and then restored, you would loose those CHANGES. There are programs meant for restoring deleted web DATA, but my best recommendations is simply to install web filtering software. There is a free one called K9, recommended by Rob Pomeroy (an old CH member) that works quite WELL.
