Ok, so i looked at the history on my internet browser today, while we were gone, the guy that we have been "sponsering" looked up kiddie porn on google, and visited several sites. What do i do? I am kicking him out, but i dont want to get in trouble for this shit.
That sux...... not exactly sure other than a hard drive replacement. Have you posted this problem in the HF Computer forum? Ya might do a web/ Znet search for total web surfing track removal. If you're running a widoze version that has a 'system restore' routine (or third party app) disable it before you start cleaning... Best guess is to clear History/ Cookies then run Adaware removing all threats/ tracking items - especially the 'negligible' items. Good Luck, A
password protect your comp too, from now on create a guest account that buddies can use, better than nothing at least adaware, avg, spybot and adware are things to look into considering reporting him? at least it won't be you who gets in trouble for the pics, but..
The only way to completely remove all trace's you (your pc) was ever there would be to either find a program that completely deletes everything on your h/d (just formatting doesn’t do this) or to destroy it e.g. run a pretty strong magnet over it for a while, smash it up etc. A good thing you could do would be to report the websites and the man in question to the authorities, or at least to google (the websites not the man lol, I have don this myself on several occasions).
I talked to a cop buddy of mine earlier, he said not to worry about repercussion, that the fbi is after distributers and producers, not so much people who surf around on sites and google search, but at least i made mention to the authorities. Working on how to ask him to leave, will update later.
Some folks are doing some HEAVY time for that shit---cover your ass dude.However.Make a note about what happened,take a picture of the note with you and especially the front page of a newspaper with the date plainly visible.Maybe that would be a defence in case "they" have the ability to find out about it.And name the fucker(who plainly had no respect for you and your family)on the note.Just a suggestion.
working on asking him to leave? "I need you out of my house tonight, you've used my possessions to break the law in one of the most creepy ways possible" or the good ole standby "get the fuck out of my house" sorry, no sympathy for those trolling for kiddie porn
I gave the cops his information, the ran a search, nothing showed. It is documented with the local police, so i am not to worried for myself.
Fuck asking him, get yourself a good old angry mob together and run him out of town after a severe beating, and perhaps suggest that it would be a good idea he leave his manhood (pathetic though it might be) with you just incase he gets any more urges. As you can probably guess I’m not to sympathetic either, even if they themselves were abused in early life they are still more than able to distinguish rite from wrong.
Boy, Heron, you're a far more kindly fellow than I. Ask him to leave? Were it me, he'd have long since spent some time in the hurt locker before being unceremoniously rolled out of the Jeep on some lonely Oregon byway far from me and mine. I have no patience or concern for people who abuse my hospitality by committing federal crimes of a disgusting nature in my home. The arm of the law has gotten too long, and I don't relish the tought of paying for someone else's transgressions. I'm not a violent man, but I get that way in defense of my family.
i know what you mean, i am the same way. "ask to leave" came across wrong. I went to the police with it, to no avail really, so i tried the official route. And my constant thought is that my hospitility is sacred, and it has been abused. It is still surreal though, running it through my head, but i got high to end a weird day. He sleeps in the shed, so no worries tonight, he will be gone tommorow.
That IS true, but still... you should download and install "crap cleaner" it removes all cookies, offline and online content, adware, spyware, and all index.dat files which would normally stay on your computer... In case your wondering I am a network engineer, and this is what I do for a living... EDIT: LINK FOUND HERE this is simply one of the best free programs on the web!
Thanks everybody. He is gone, i told him straight up what and why he has to leave, and he took it fairly well. I told him that fortunatly i have been trying to approach life with less violence. But had he done something to my children, which he didnt, then he would have been in a shallow grave somewhere, with no one the wiser.
I think it's a funny world we live in where people can be put in jail just for looking at something! How does looking at something hurt anyone? Some people enjoy watching footage of car crashes... should they be sentenced for murder? Did anyone see the footage of 9/11? I did. In fact, I've downloaded a lot of photos of the WTC attacks. Should I be put in jail for terrorism? The world is fucked up.
If people were being murdered just for the sake of selling it online, then yes, the people supporting that should go to jail as well.
If you can prove that you were not the one who looked it up, call the cops. 1) You get a pervert out of circulation. 2) You cover your arse about potential problems with the law. I would consult a lawer before doing this. The cops are so rabid about kiddie porn that burning the computer and running it through a mulcher may be your only safe option.
Mike, i talked to the cops, have a good friend who is a cop, he was pretty "give a damn" about the porn, he just suggested i clear it up and get rid of the guy. SO, thats what i did.
