I've got to set up a computer that is going to be used off site and I'll connect into it remotely via remote desktop.

Is there a recommended program that I can install onto the PC so that periodically I can go in and check if it has been used to go to any where dodgy on the net?

I've found a couple that work over a proper network, but that's not quite what I'm looking for.

Cheers!

How does the PC connect to the Internet? If it can go through a proxy of some sort, then that can log all traffic that passes through it. If its off-site, any software you install on it to monitor, has the possibility to be bypassed.

It'll be connected via a router and it has a static IP. I'm not sure if that means it can go through a proxy server or not.

I found a program called boss everywhere (at I think that's what it was called). I've downloaded a trial but haven't had a look yet.
