Re: Internet surfing being logged

Hello to all.
I discovered my boss is spying on the surfing habits of the employers
on the network.

Boss? As in employer? As in it's their network?


He is using the administrator at the server's computer to check the
logs of the networked computers.
I figured if I change the IP address of my computer , and/or change
the user name, by opening a new user account he wouldn't be able to
figure out the identity of the computer doing the surfing.

You figured wrong on a lot of counts.


I have
sufficient privileges to carry out these changes.

But not sufficient sense to think it through.


Is it possible also to change the computer name? I assume the server
is either a Windows 2000 or 2003 PC.
My PC is a Windows XP computer.

'Your' PC, or your employer's PC? Most companies would have your ass
out the door before you had time to call mommy or daddy to pick you up.
Don't plan on listing this job in your employment history.

Tell me, you're joking right?

Really, which is this; a joe-job or a troll? The real Gerard do
something to piss you off?
