If you are in danger, please try to use a safer computer
that someone abusive does not have direct access, or even
remote (hacking) access to. It might be safer to use a computer
in a public library, at a trusted friend's house,
an Internet Cafe, or at work.
If
you think your activities are being monitored, they probably
are.
Abusive
people are often controlling and want to know your every move.
You don't need to be a computer programmer or have special
skills to monitor someone's computer activities - anyone can
do it and there are many ways to monitor.
Computers
can provide a lot of information about what you look at on
the Internet, the e-mails you send, and other activities.
It is not possible to completely delete or clear all
computer footprints. You might consider no home Internet
use or "safer" Internet surfing. For example, If
you are planning to flee to California, don't look at classified
ads for jobs, apartments, etc. in California on a home computer
or any computer an abuser has physical or remote access to.
