    Tropez I am not savvy with computers you've prob guessed. So how come if you just clear the history someone who uses pc after can see whats been looked at? I thought it cleared it completely.

    I need to get rid of the 'private browsing' tab, can this be done?

    Because clearing the history just does that, it clears the list of webpages that have been visited. But every time you visit a webpage you download parts of those site to your computer (Temporary Internet Files), any searches you performed to take you to that site are saved in your search history, most sites put cookies (they're small, harmless tracking files) on your computer - there's a lot of things that happen when you visit webpages all of which can be used to discover what someone has been doing.

    If you went into your Temporary Internet Files folder, you'd probably be amazed at all the little pictures you'd accumulated over time - there'd likely be some MSE logos in there and everything.

    You can disable Private browsing but it involves doing some techy stuff you may not feel comfortable with - http://www.thewindowsclub.com/disable-private-browsing-internet-explorer-chrome-firefox - there's the instructions, anyway.

    Jeremy Kyle will sort it out for you. ;)

    He was a bit incapacitated the last I heard :rotfl: (he was pepper-sprayed in Magaluf by a nightclub bouncer who took a dislike to him)

    OP I don't know what to think either. Seems that either he's got a bit on the side who wears exactly the same size knickers as you and also cuts the labels out like you do, or the knickers have entered the house some other way (eg wind has blown them off a neighbour's washing line). Both seem a bit unlikely.

    For the person who asked if women cut the labels out of their underpants, I do if the label is in the middle at the back, as it gets a bit annoying and uncomfortable. If the label's at the side I tend to leave them in.

    hazyjo.....I called him twice in the evening but that doesn't mean nothing.

    No label in knickers so no I cant find out where there from.

    He would normally play xbox or go on internet as well as watching tv.

    I asked what he did all evening, he said he got in from work at 6pm and watched tv and waited for the semi's of the world cup, which started at 9pm.

    I know this sounds like Im being ultra paronoid, but didnt play the xbox, didnt use laptop, sofa didnt even look like it had been sat on, but do have tv in bedroom. He loves his tom plants, it was a hot day and he didnt even water them, I know that sounds mad but he waters them EVERY day!! No coffee or cig in the morning because he wanted to get out quick and rush home to me! (he's a van driver)

    Have you been leaving your window open in the hot weather?

    I'm wondering whether a jackdaw or magpie has picked them up from a neighbour's washing line, landed on your windowsill and then tossed them onto the bed?

    Hire a private detective if you want to know the truth.
  • Sounds to me like you have a huge trust issue with him already. That's going to destroy the relationship, eventually, anyway.
    If in doubt, turf him out........
