Mumsnet has not checked the qualifications of anyone posting here. Many Mumsnetters experiencing domestic abuse have found this thread helpful: Listen up, everybody. My DH is away on a trip. Before he went he'd been acting a bit strangely with his phone - hardly ever letting it out of his sight - and a few other things had made me feel suspicious. So I had a snoop on his computer and he's visited a online dating site - a sex one.
He did this two years ago previous thread here. I believed him when he said he hadn't used the site other than to "have a look". We really worked at our relationship after that and I thought I'd forgiven him and moved on. But since he's been away a lot more with work legitimately I've realised I actually don't trust him at all and feel constantly suspicious.
I don't know where to go from here. Part of me can't even be arsed to confront him. I know he'll say he just had a quick look at the site then moved on and I really can't prove that's not true. I'm pretty confused - I know some people see this type of behaviour as a minor misdemeanour anyway but it does feel like a real betrayal.
Where do I go from here? Cookies have an expiry date OP. Most but not all of these expire in under 2 years. Check your settings to see how long either of you has commanded the PC to keep the cookies for. In Mozilla, you do this by going first to tools, then options, then privacy. Within the privacy menu, it will say "Mozilla will save history for Go to customise, and you will see a series of boxes to tick. If the 'Accept third party cookies' box is ticked, it will give the user options of how long to keep the cookies on the PC.
They are: delete as soon as I close Firefox, until they expire, ask me each time. Is your PC set to keep cookies until they expire OP? If it isn't, then this story of ancient cookies is not true. And now that he's deleted them, we can't tell you how to check what dates they were accessed, something I'm sure he knew and therefore wanted to destroy the evidence. No, you won't be able to tell if he looks at these sites in future. He will go into Private Browsing and so no cookies will be stored.
