Hello,i am Halil from Turkey.\nWell,i am 17 years old and have a brother.He is 9 years old.We have an internet connection at our home.If i was a father i think i would check my children's mails.Because this internet life is not very trusted.There are lots of spy wares and viruses.Also my brother has been found guilty 2 times about this.For people who had found my brother guilty,he had said so bad speech to his friends' family on msn messenger.But he says"I did not do!!"Even his teacher was very angry about him.We could not do anything.\nBut then we found out that my brother can not log in his msn messenger.It was hacked by someone...\nSo this example maybe a bit far away from your question but i just wanted to tell that.\nIn the end,in MY opinion i would check their mails..Maybe i could ask my children about it before i do...\n                 ---goodbye---

Well, i am sorry for u. But u did not tell which email you are using and wheter if is a paid account or a free one.\nIf it is a paid account then give a call again to the tech support and verify the a/c info and reset the password if isp provided .\n\nOtherwise if it is a free account then the best option is to create a new one.But if there is some important file on there .Then try to get a password retrival tool and install it but most of them work if you lost the passwod and you have delted the cookies and all the histroy .\n\nSO go ahead give it a shot

I wouldn't put my email on this site. You are going to get some creeps emailing you and you sound underage!

Because he reads yours! Or maybe it's because you are female(I guess) and that's what we do. I used to check Mr. Evil's emails but he kept changing his password and I haven't worked it out this time! I actually thought after changing it twice, he would be too stupid to think of anything else he could remember, you know, being a man and all.

DON'T GIVE HIM ANYTHING PERSONAL!!!!!  IF HE REALLY IS LEGIT, THEN HE COULD LOG IN W/O NEEDING TO KNOW YOUR PASSWORD!!!

You could use a yahoo 360 page with strict parental controls so only people who know his email address can ask for permission to see his page, I am in the same situation with my 11 year old. We have an agreement that I'm added as a friend so I can see who she is adding.

sounds as if your email may be being spammed, if so read these articles otherwise you may be using a simple password which allow folk to guess easily and "access" your acc. Use a mix of numbers and letters.

If he has already been to those sites you probably have an infection already.\n\nSnapfiles have several Free parental control programs. He might be savvy enough to get around these. If he does you might need to resort to a Keylogger that will give you a report of everthing and every key stroke he does on the computer.\n\nParental control programs:\n\nhttp://www.snapfiles.com/Freeware/misctools/fwparents.html\n\nFree Keylogger programs:\n\nhttp://www.snapfiles.com/Freeware/security/fwaccessmonitoring.html

I would block her or at least don't answer her. Maybe she has the wrong email address. Or how do you think she got yours. either way I would not answer. you never know in this day and age what is up . it could even be a test in this day and age by the police or what ever. keep your self safe. Good luck

Yes, surely she trusts you.  Because e-mail addresses and passwords are very confidential in nature, her giving your hers is a sure sign that she trusts you.  As to the reasons why she gave you those information, there are many possibilities.  One, at one time or another, she might ask you to open it for her if she cannot do it herself  and see if she has important messages to act on.  Two, may be she wants you to know her better if by chance you become curious and you  open her e-mail address.  Three, may be she wants you to know that you are a person who can be trusted and that will boost your ego.  Four, she wants to know if  she is right in trusting you by your not opening her e-mail which is unethical.  Fifth, none of the above which I don't know anymore.  \n\nI'm sure that you won't open her e-mail and that makes you worthy of trust.

im assuming u keep system history and archives so u can go back and see whats what with her on the pc. also, a pointer might be, dont allow usage of the pc unless urstiiting right there. many a pedophile knows just what 2 say 2 a child 2 lure them in. kind of scares u? what business does a grown man have with a 12 yr old child? contact the police department with copies of the conversations as well, im sure they can help u with some monitoring type things u can do 2 make sure. dont worry about her being pissed about privacy, if something happened 2 ur child via some perv online, u will wish u would have acted sooner.! good luck!

Yeh right, trust your intuition! I had three children in their teens, one of them a bit of a geek. Unlucky for him I have a 'Grad Dip in IT' and although as a teen he wouldn't admit it, I do know more than he does :-). I sprung them a number of times. The reason the search histories are clean is because they are hiding were they have been! This has already broken the trust rule!\n\nI think its right that you should be concerned.\n\nI circumvented there attempts to hide things from me by simply conducting file searches on the computer. I had a rule that they had to get off the computer by midnight. This is easy to find because you just do a file search by date and then sort the results by time. System files which get modified by time cannot be deleted without crashing the whole computer.\n\nNext there issue of which sites they are going to. Search histories and cookies are easy to delete. The files that get dropped on your computer by some of the suspect websites are not so easy to find or delete. Do a file search on key words such as XXX, sex, teen, naked and any of the other notorias words you can think of. You'd be amazed what comes up.\n\nLastly I recommend that, if you haven't done so already and assuming you have XP, create seperate accounts for each of your children. This allows you to do file searches on them individually and zero in on the suspect!\n\nFor XP, to do a search on your hard drive as described go START, MY COMPUTER and right click on the Harddrive (HD), select SEARCH and go for it. If you have individual accounts doublt left click on the HD and select DOCUMENTS and SETTINGS, select the individual account your interested, right click on the folder and select search.\n\nTo Refresh, let me guess, your a teen? :-)

For best advice, if you have a spam filter, send it there.  Do not open the email as this type often contains a virus.  Protect your PC and use common sense, never open an email unless you (a) know the sender or (b) it is from a reputable source.  Never check suspicious looking emails and certainly don't open any attatchments on them or it could be bye bye PC..\n\nHope this answers your question\n\nNigel..

You were suspicious to begin with, hence you "checked" his email.  Now your suspicions are confirmed.  I would call a marsvenus coach to find out a) what to do and b) how can you regain your trust in this or any man.  You cannot have a healthy relationship where there is no trust.  Time for you to address all your past relationships and childhood wounds to determine why you were suspicious in the first place--was it his behaviour or your problem that drove you to check the email?
