George,

To prevent your ISP, what Flag said is correct. For your Company, they
could have access to everything you do in minutes. Look at spectorsoft.com
and their spector professional edition. I'm using it on PC for several
clients. And have caught folks doing things they should not. Best to keep
your private stuff off of other peoples PC's.
