it is possible with some programmes like Remote Administrator and others. as long as you have the program on both computers, and the IP address, you can see what the other guy online is doing. you can even control his computer. that's what i do to my mum's computer in my mum's office :D\nsome spy wares install similar programs int your computer, so that they can moniter you. why do you think they can get your password for your bank account? when you do such transactions, they are able to see what you typed with those sort of programmes.\n\nwell, you should get a firewall if you dont want to be a victim. also, get a anti-spyware and adware program. these are availale at www.cnet.com. the downloads there are safe and good. =) and dont click on those wierd advertisements on websites, they do no good. delete spam form your email. if some guy askes you to confirm your info, dont,unless you are very sure that that guy is trustworthy. he may not even have any info of yours in the first place.

You can install a network sniffer and watch the network traffic.  If you see unexpected traffic, you can see the IP address it is coming from.

You can access history to find out. However, intruders still can easily erase their traces.\n\nKeylogging softwares can help in your case. However, beware that this kind of software is mainly intended for password stealing rather than tracking purposes.\n\nIf you simply want to protect your privacy, there're some methods:\n1. Create a guess account, then go to Windows Explorer > Tool > Option > View, uncheck Use simple file sharing (suppose you have admin rights, running WinXP pro with NTFS file system)\n2. Enable password protected screensaver \n2. Lock your PC everytime you leave it: Ctrl+Alt+Del > Shutdown > Lock computer

Well if you are sitting at the computer then entering ipconfig /all at the command prompt will tell you what you want to know.  The link below will tell you your public IP address if you are using some sort of address translation.

your computer has its very own ip address, through the ip address, people can find out, where you are from you internet connection, there is also some personal information, but dont worry, only the government is cappable of doing this, but beware of hackers!

If you have like VNC or PCAnywhere installed on your computer, someone can see your screen and do control your computer remotely.\n\nMake sure your computer don't have those software install if you don't want to be remote control.\n\nd10v01b

there is no way. even as an administrator of the computer, the secondary users still have that information kept private from you. thats the joys of windows xp lol

your computer is coming from an ip address, they check their records for all te accounts under that ip address. that is how they get your info.

That is a private IP address. thousands or millions of computers can have that address. In your case, it is a device on your own network

While I cannot say this with 100% accuracy, I will say no.  I believe that your internet connection itself is not confidential.  There are tools such as a packet sniff that can reveal what your activity has been and where you are.  Also, if you recall, Ask Jeeves used to show what other people were searching.
