Signs a Partner is Cheating Online

Are you suspicious that your partner might be cheating on you through the internet? Here are some signs a partner is cheating online:

1.) History Deleted: If your partner is up to something, he or she is bound to delete the computer history every time he/she logs off. This is especially true if as a partner you get to access the computer as well. To check if the history has been deleted, just check the ‘browser history’. Here’s how you can do this:

For internet explorer the history tab is right next to the ‘favorites tab’ which is represented by a ‘yellow star’ icon.

For Firefox the history tool is right on the top menu next to ‘file’, ‘edit’ and ‘view’.

2.) Denying Access: Chances are that your partner would have created his own user account in the computer, blocking you access to his personal files. If this was not the case before this can definitely be a clue that something is wrong.

3.) More Cautious with the Mobile: What’s online, does not always stay online. There is a good possibility that your partner would have exchanged numbers with his/her new lover. This means, he or she will be more cautious with their mobile phones especially when a new SMS arrives. They will try to keep their mobiles as close to themselves as possible so you don’t get to see any messages or phone numbers.

4.) Checking Emails Frequently: Do you see an increased frequency in your partner’s internet usage? Do you see them logging on and off more often than before? Chances are that they are expecting something in their inbox.

5.) Working Late: Seen your partner working late hours after you are asleep? This is the best time to chat without disturbance with the new guy or girl. If this was not the case before and has developed only recently, you have something to worry about.

How to Catch a Cheating Partner Online?

Here are two simple ways of catching your cheating partner online.

1.) Install a keylogger: You can buy a keylogger software from your nearby software store and install it in his/her laptop or desktop. The keylogger will record everything that happens in the PC and send you regular reports via email.

2.) Check their PC: Unless your partner is an experienced computer user, he or she might have left behind a lot of clues like downloaded images, chat message archives or stored passwords. You can easily get hold of them by logging in to the computer considering that the computer does not have unique user logins.
