Default private browsing mode and keylogger

I would be grateful if someone computer techie can give me some info.

OH gave me the admin password, but I just checked the history and he has inquired about installing private browsing mode.
I suspect this is to watch websites in private but I also suspect he thinks if I insatall a keylogger he is safe.
I am not a computer person at all and I will not be able to install a keylogger as I can not go round Norton security.
So, would a keylogger pick up websites watched in private browsing mode?
Thanks

Yes, most of the keyloggers are able to pick up the websites history, like Micro keylogger here.

I downloaded a free keylogger a while ago and it recorded any private browsing.

I saw everything he looked at and every word he typed.
He was clean as a whistle.

I was really worried about downloading some nasty virus or the like but the PC was fine.

It was amazing. Each time I checked it my heart would beat really fast and I'd feel so anxious.

It gave me peace of mind and has helped me move on.

If you're having tech problems with antivirus and a software keylogger then get a hardware keylogger that goes into the keyboard

That's almost useless now unless you want to scrub for passwords. Since you can go to sites with minimal key presses (sometimes none at all).

Hardware loggers are good for two things only IMO: scrubbing for passwords and looking at written emails.

but if a person is trying to keep quiet about what sites they visit they will not have them bookmarked and will have to type them into the browser during the private mode

How tech savvy is your husband? You can disable inprivate browsing on your computer if you want to. I should have written down the process when I did it because I did have to do a little digging to figure it out. I consider inprivate browsing another tech development being used for evil rather than good the vast majority of the time.

But, desktopshark screenshots of the stuff he looked at in inprivatebrowsing mode. Otherwise I never would have known.

If you need me to look it up again, I can do that.

If you are for home security use, a software keylogger is enough, you can choose a stable and invisible keylogger and it is much cheaper.

You get to see everything with the keylogger, sometimes I even felt like it was a real window into the thought process as you read the edits of what they write.

by the way, never let them know how you know what you know. It's best if you don't even let on exactly what you know, but corner them into confessing with your questions.

Most good keyloggers will take screen shots as well as record key strokes and website history. You may have to make an exception in your anti-virus software to get them going.

I don't understand why anyone would want to be with someone that they felt they had to spy on.. the way I see it is if he can find someone better than me I wish him luck, I just cannot waste my precious time worrying about what he is doing online.. I make him empty his own pockets before I wash his clothes, so if there was anything I would not find it, I never check his phone, or his wallet. Even if I suspected him of something I would not do it.. I know that sounds kinda mean.. and I am not trying to put anyone down for what they do or don't do.. it is just the way I feel about all of it!
