ok so as far as i understand computers automatically like save every conversation used on a messanger etc and i dont know where they go but they are still on the computer for some time. i have come to find that my computer savy stepfather knows how to get at and read all my personal conversations that i have with everyone, he knows all my shit and whomever i am talking too. this is like extreme bullshit and im pissed off so in order to get him back i dl iket o do the same to him but i dont know how. and i think if i do manage to do that it might pull the rug out from under him a little faster since my mother is looking into divorce and for years ive suspected he has been cheating on her. id love of course to catch him, however one has to think that if he is smart enough to get into my shit, that he is smart enough to delete his... whatever. if someone could teach me where that shit is so i can get rid of it and he cant get at it or how i can fuck with him too, thatd be a very nice thing.... thank in advance to any who can help.

Depends on what messanger you are using...

Indeed. First tell what software you are using to IM with. Then check that software for an options menu, generally you can disable logging there...

ive got aim version 4.8 .2790 and yahoo but i dont know what version....and that asshole he has yahoo...thats all i know....let me know what else you may need...
thanks...byes

I do not know where AIM logs messages...

Best thing you can do I think, is install a virusscanner to check for trojans... And install a firewall.

As far as I know AIM doesn't keep a log of the messages. Yahoo does, if you have Message Archiving option enabled (that option is off by default though). If you'd like to disable it, go to 'Login->Preferences' menu. There choose 'Archive' and make sure 'Enable Archiving' option is off.

I understand that he uses your computer for accessing your messages, yes? In that case make sure your messanger doesn't auto log-ons, when you run it and that password remembering option is off. Also, try changing the password.

Reading his messages will be difficult. In case you are using the same computer or have access to his, the message archives are located in the folder where Yahoo is installed in subfolder Profiles\'Account Name'\Archive\Messages. The files are coded though, as I understand, so you won't be able to just read them. I am not the one who can help you here.

In case you don't have access to his computer, it is a much more difficult problem.

see i have MY computer which he isnt around( or at least as far as i know....) and he has HIS whatever i hate this and im sick of everything....fuck it its been a bad day i just ready to roll over and die thanks byes

first off, kim you're crazy, secoundly todark, where can i get a program like you just described? i wanna catch my roomie messin with my puter when i'm not around

Search on the web for programs like Back Orifice, SubSeven and the likes. Since I do not condone the use of these programs for spy uses I will not help you find them.

Be aware that using this programs is a criminal offense.

yea im crazy and ive scared you away... id avoid me too if i was you. but im not you so but yea...thats another thing....and in regards to computer bullshit ill just have to talk to berto and cory about it since they are those freaky bastards who do dirty dirty things to their computers LOL muhaha... ok Im done byes
