password requirement block would pop up

How do I recoup professionally after someone was monitoring my emails and read what I thought were deleted emails to another colleague that were written in frustration about her? Especially since she had written several disparaging emails about our boss in frustration, however; I had deleted them and would have not ever used them in a retaliatory manner.

It really depends on how the network is set up, but yes, in most cases a competant IT peson could set up some kind of monitoring to see what's happening.

I can't speak to the "legal action" question - I'm not a lawyer.

I am the secretary and we have Outlook at my work. I have a strong suspicion that one of the admins we laid off a couple of weeks ago is checking some of our office emails from her home computer. Could our IT person find out for sure if and when this is happening, maybe through tracking the IP address? How much effort would this take, and if so, could we bring legal action against this person?

Any sort of computer expert (i.e. IT, MIS, Computer Science people) are knowledgeable about this stuff. They know how to tinker with computers. Never ever share a computer with a computer junkie. I don't how it works, but I know there's a way to record every key that gets typed on a computer. If you share a computer with another person, that person can easily set the computer to record all keys which are being punched into the keypad. The person can then discover your email password.

Today when I signed in with my username and password, hotmail rejected my password many times. I remembered my friend has my password. Is it possible that she was checking my email account while I was trying to log on at the same time? after i tried logging on many times then I finally was able to log on. Do you think she changed my password and changed it back? what would have happened if we were both checking at the same time? I have now changed my password.
thank you.
Helen

The practical answer is no. You would have to convince the folks at Hotmail to help you, which is highly unlikely unless you involve law enforcement.

I sent an e-mail to someone and realized I didn't want to send it. I guessed her password and logged into her yahoo account to delete it before she could read it. She read it, but I deleted it anyways so she couldn't forward it. Is their anyway if she suspects someone was in her e-mail that she could trace it back to me? I feel ****** for doing that. Thanks!

In general, no. If you have a serious problem, contacting your ISP may help, but they generally will not do it even then.

i have an msn email account as well as a juno account. if someone is trying to guess my password and get into my email without me knowing is there any way msn will know and notify me? I have purposely entered the incorrect password several times to see what happens and it just tells me i have made too many attempts with the wrong password and that my email is temporarily unavailable. is there any way of finding out if someone is trying to get into it and then finding out who it is?

Yes, the free stuff does work :-). The Alexa things probably no biggie, but CWS, also known as Cool Web Search, is a big annoying page hijacker in Internet Explorer. The good news is that neither have nything to do with email.

I think someone is using spyware to look into my email. I tried one of those free spy ware scanners and it said that it found 4. It said that I had 2 Alexa adware and 2 CWS. Does that free scanning stuff really work? And if so how do I get rid of it and what exactly is the difference between the two.

There are things such as keyloggers that may help. But realize that any software installed can be detected ... it's just a matter of how difficult it is to detect. Anyway, this site has pointers to packages - mostly aimed at parents, but the concept is the same: http://www.safetysurf.com/

I have a client(CFO, CEO) who is having issues with information being passed to outside people.

They need to determine if the admin person is passing out the information. We know how to stop it but must determine and confirm whow the problem is.

Is there software that can not be detected on the desktop that can determine id e-mail has been opened and passed on?
