I need a software that can monitor and log activity of my computer. I let some people use my computer when I'm not around. I trust them, yes, but I want to be aware of everything that goes on my pc.

It needs to log programs used, installs and uninstalls, system settings changes, websites accessed and maybe a few more stuff.

It should also be incognito, no obvious signs that a logger is active. No systems tray icon. Access to the software should also be password protected.

Hey its my computer. I have every right to know what's going on there.

Well I could just let go of the website logger. Just the system activity logger.

Its my family that uses my computer. I don't want them sabotaging and fucking up my PC

I know what you are going from, And it largely makes sense.

But im against seeing their activity on the internet, Im thinking about their privacy and their right to remain anonymous.

Id suggest not letting them be on the computer if you are willing to track everything they are doing.

If you really want to track what they are doing you are not trusting them enough.

I dont know any programs that would do what you want.

Like I said, the website logging could go away.

I just need a system logger like stated above.

Its the only computer in the house so I can't keep them off it.
