The fastest way to check ever

 There is a new site which enables you to very quickly check where your browser has been. You do not need to scroll through page after page of history and spend an hour poring over hidden URLs. Now all you need to do is visit a site and you can immediately see where your browser has been.

http://www.Check-History.com

On the main page, there are the three basic history checks:

  1. What popular sites your browser has recently visited
  2. What dating sites your brower has visited - a lot of people are interested in this one!
  3. What porn sites have been visited by your PC.

Just by clicking on each of the three links your PC is checked for visited links. This test is a new one and does not require any software or spyware, but it actually tricks your browser into tattling on itself using just a little bit of CSS and JavaScript to hide unvisited links and show visited ones!

It's a pretty simple trick in theory, but the results can be stunning and amazing if you do not know how it is done.

There are more searches inside the site as well as information on how to effectively clean your browser of all traces of sites you would not like showing up in your history... or sites that you would rather keep secret from prying eyes.

There are essentially 5 ways that people can check someone's browser history without installing any spyware or keyloggers. They are listed below from the easiest and fastest to the most arduous and time-consuming.

  1. www.Check-History.com - the only site that allows an instant and free check.
  2. CTRL + H (Control H = Opens your browser history panel) and manually searching all of the listed sites - an arduous process.
  3. Checking the Cookies
  4. Checking the Cache
  5. Going through the letters of the alphabet in the address bar and seeing what sites pop up in the auto-complete drop-down menu.

There are ways to avoid being spied upon by these measures, all of which you can read more about at the site.

Additionally, there are many resources to effectively hide your history, clean your cache and cull your cookies - all of which are linked on the site.

Amaze Your Friends with customized results

Using the generator that is on www.Check-History.com you can generate a 'smart' URL. That is, you can send your friend to the site where he/she will just see a report on the lates sites they have visited... WITH THEIR NAME AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE!

This is a kind of neat prank, as the effect is quite amazing - even though none of their data is ever actually search or shared.

How it works:

Suppose you have a friend, "Joe Smith", let's say...

Now, you know that your old buddy Joe spends way too much time on dating sites. So you play a little trick on him... you send him a link, that when he clicks on it, says something like:

Dating Sites Joe Smith has visited:

  • Match.com
  • AsianCupid.com
  • AdultFriendFinder.com
  • ...etc.

This is done using a bit of trickery of course, and you can generate such a page in seconds at the site using the generator script.

You can do it manually by simply adding someone's name to the end of the URL like this:

http://www.check-history.com/visitedsites.php?Joe%20Smith

Just replace the "Joe" and "Smith" with anyone's name and Voila - a window opens with their name and the sites they have visited. Try it!

No harm will come to anyone's computer, as this is merely CSS and harmless JavaScript!

Have fun!
