OH's best mate looking at photos of me on PC!!

Ok, I'm going to go against the grain here. I don't think it's creepy at all - if you look good in a bikini men are going to appreciate the eye-candy, whether that's taking a second look on the beach, or taking a second look when flicking through your general holiday photos.

I honestly think that the best way forward is to make a joke out of it and say something outright to the guy - perhaps a "Hey, there's my bikini shots left open on the computer, were you oggling me JoeBloggs? Bad boy!" That's all it's going to take to make him blush, get incredibly embarrassed and not do it again.

I'm just curious....how do you know he has only looked at the bikini shots? Do you have a special folder called "butterfly72's bikini pics"? And even then, how do you know he's looked at any pictures at all? It's a serious question, I have no idea if/how you can even tell a folder or a file was opened (unless you go and look for it one by one).

I was wondering the exact same thing :think:

I was just about to ask the same questions.

Not sure you're going too much against the grain, I'm with you.

Hold on a second. Why do you all think it's okay for someone to go onto someone elses computer and look through their files? It's non of his business. He shouldn't of gone on the computer in the first place!

Depends how clever/dumb the person doing it is and how they have been viewed. Most likely is that they found them in the "Recent Places" folder in Win 7/Vista. If they have been looked at in a browser then they will show up in the history as well. Forensically you can find out what folders, files etc., have been opened to a much greater degree though I strongly doubt the OP did this (It is more the thing police are interested in doing!)
p.s. I think it is creepy and a betrayal of trust. I mean, what else has he been doing in the house while they were out :eek:

A friend of mine (female) once woke up to find another friend (male) sitting on the end of her bed naked. :eek:

Thanks for the replys. Welshwoofs.. I dont look too bad but still no reason to go looking!

I know he only looked at the bikini pics because they are the ones that show in the history. I have no special folder.. They are all shown on the screen..albeit tiny pics and you select the ones you want to see in greater detail in a new window. These show on the internet hx. If he likes looking at people..then then there are plenty to choose from!

I must admit i couldnt resist looking to see if he'd looked. I had the pc on anyway. We dont have the pc on security or pw protected as theres just me and OH.

Not sure i can make a joke out it... I'm fuming!! I think I'll have to tell OH. Perhaps when he's gone? Its his life long mate. I made the point of telling you his age so you can appreciate its not some randy teenager getting cheap thrills. That i could forgive!

For those that think its acceptable to look at such photos... I disagree. I was on public display on the beach but my photos aren't! I think it was disrespectful for him to look at ANY of our photos on our pc without asking first.

Best way to avoid things like this is to get an external hard drive or USB stick and put your photo's on there. Or you can password protect your pc or just not let him stay again.
