| | Security I work for a company that allow its employees to see their paycheques and benefits by way of accessing the company’s webpage. This can be done from home on your personal PC. I have Windows Vista with a pass code to my account. Can the company access my personal files on my C: drive remotely without my knowledge? I have been told they cannot physically do such a thing and that it is illegal to do so (but I don’t think this would stop some people)? -- Thank you. |

If it was the company's laptop you were using at home, they could very well have software on the machine to monitor your activates and see every move you make with the computer. I doubt in your case with an online Web solution you're talking about that a company would even *CARE* what you have on your personal computer. The paranoia of some people is unbelievable. <g> |
