How can we pull a list of websites accessed by a particular user?

Only if you have a proxy logging your URL traffic.

What router do you have to the internet? Some have logging options, probably not turned on by default.


There's always the user's browser history.

We have a standard linksys router which I'm sure can do logging but it probably can't tell which user went to which website, just a general url list accessed by all users on our network.

It seems the nirsoft utility is the closest thing that would let us view the URLs a certain user has accessed but, as you said, it would require some work to setup a GP to disable the delete history button.

Thanks

Yeah I guess that's the balance... the solution I gave you is low cost but will involve some configuration, and isn't 100% perfect. The alternative would be a proxy server or something like www.spectorsoft.com which would certainly be higher cost but is more sophisticated and provides other useful features too.

Hope this helps.

phil, a side question: do you know if spectorsoft offers proxy server service?

I don't believe spectorsoft does, but it does offer blocking of particular sites, monitoring of sites accessed, as well as screen shots of the user's screen, key logger, etc. There are a lot of good features, but it is expensive...

That historyviewer program is almost what our management is looking for.  If only it could be configured to view history on all the machines on our network from a central workstation.

Thanks for the suggestions
