Checkstick Ltd. have been researching the issues that computers in the home and access to the internet, being more widely accessible today, bring with them and what issues giving children access to the internet creates. Based on the feedback received they have developed a new, innovative and very affordable solution that will allow children to continue using the internet safely and give parents peace of mind that they are behaving in a responsible way.

Put in simple terms they have developed a method to record the activity that takes place on a PC. Checkstick offers you the ability to monitor and record all the actions that take place by inserting a memory stick and letting Checkstick do the rest.

How does Checkstick work?

By simply inserting Checkstick into your PC it will quickly determine how many user accounts exist on the PC and show these as being available to scan. You can then either click on one of the user names which will show you the available history for that user, or you can start to monitor all users activity by pressing a “Start” button.

You can run Checkstick as many times as you wish for all the users who are on the same PC.

Once Checkstick has finished recording you can either review the results there and then on the same PC or remove Checkstick and review at your leisure on another PC.

What can you see?

All internet browsing history, including:

Internet sites visited. Viewed images. Sent & Received Emails. All chat room and instant messaging history (MSN, Yahoo, Skype or ICQ etc) Social networking activity (Facebook, Myspace, YouTube & Bebo etc). All with dates, times & how long spent on each activity.
