The admin would see traffic on an unusual port number. If I were the
admin, I'd put key-logger and remote desktop programs on her system. Then
it's an open book.

Have you ever seen the look on some ones face when you walk up and show
them a printout containing their credit card numbers, user names and
passwords for adult sites, conversations they've had in chat rooms, etc?
It's priceless!

It's even more priceless when they fashion themselves to be clever
"power-users"...

The second item in the liberal creed, after self-righteousness, is 
unaccountability. Liberals have invented whole college majors - psychology, 
sociology, women's studies - to prove that nothing is anybody's fault. No one is 
fond of taking responsibility for his actions, but consider how much you'd have 
to hate free will to come up with a political platform that advocates killing 
unborn babies but not convicted murderers. A callous pragmatist might 
favor abortion and capital punishment. A devout Christian would sanction neither. 
But it takes years of therapy to arrive at the liberal view.
