Setting a PC trap ?

[Moonpie2]

I'll not bore you with the details, but my friend thinks her other half is accessing her laptop and skype/gmail/msn etc accounts.

Whether this is from simply knowing the password or having a keylogger installed or being a 1337 programmer (as he is) I dunno.

But can anyone think of any good traps to set to find out for sure?

The only one I can think of (that I sometimes do myself) is to place the mouse in an exact position that's easy to remember, then if it moves a lot over the coming days then there's been shennanigans.

So like I say. Anyone have any sneaky ideas ?

The should probably split up.

If this is proved, that may very well happen

Nice idea about the gmail logon history. Totally forgot about that.

I also believe she has a Mac (bleegghh) so does that have an event viewer type application ?

Well, I'm just here for ideas on extracting fact from suspicion.

Everything else is none of my business.

Thanks for all the replies, amusing AND useful

The Prey Software sounds good. Might be worth giving that a whirl.
Then go overkill with Truecrypt and Lastpass once all passwords have been modified into 10+ character long monsters

She's a women and therefore a paranoid nutcase. Chances are her bloke has not even been going near her laptop. If she can find this out without having to accuse him then it will be better.
