I've observed the converse, i.e. that some sites that I've been to don't get added to the history. The includes some Ebay pages but the really obvious one is Google. At one time the pages associated with all my Google searches were added to the history. This doesn't happen any more. Is there an option that I don't know about that has been switched?

So my husband goes on websites like flikr and too shocking and I have found some stuff in the History - but it's hard for me to get mad when i'm unsure if he's actually going on these sites.
How can i tell? is there a tool for this?

A similar thing has happend to me..I found a bunch of stuff in my web history that I didn't go to. They were all from the same site and in 2 different web history that I have. Porn of course..is this still possible that it is spyware?

After searching for an hour online I finally found this clear explanation of why stuff is appearing in my history when I have never been to these sites. Most of them are porn! I'm glad my pop up blocker is working and I'm not going crazy! Every site online is telling me I'm looking at this stuff when I'm not!

There's one major possibility you didn't address, Leo: just because he doesn't go to "those" kinds of sites doesn't mean other's don't, if others use his computer. Indeed, does he have teens in the house? They could be doing things and going places on his computer that he wouldn't approve of....
