It's not things from the internet that I'm talkin about. I know how to do those things u suggested. I'm talkin about our digital pictures we have on our hard drive already. If I open up a folder and click on a picture, she's can tell me what I have looked at. If I load a CD, she can tell me what I have listened to. If I play a video clip, she can tell me what I have watched. It just drives me crazy. At first I thought she just went to search and searched recently accessed files by the date. But I tried to test that theory and nothing shows up that I accessed.

Sounds like maybe there's a logger app on there? There are a couple apps that will find these, SpyCop comes to mind, but maybe start with that and search for a couple more.

I think she is accessing windows history some how. Not internet history, just anything done in windows. Where can that be viewed? Can it be hidden? Can it be erased?

That I'm not sure about. But if I were wanting to express my 1337-ness to someone perhaps less savvy, I'd install a surreptitious spying application, with a UI that provides an easy summary of activity.

well, i don't think thats the case but who knows...i already run these programs weekly: pest patrol, ad-aware, spybot, no adware, avg anti spyware....i think if she was running some spy program she would mention things about internet....all she ever mentions is files accessed

Keyboard loggers and the like, AFAIK, are in a slightly different class than the flotsem and jetsem that finds its way onto your machine through the net. I guess take a look at how SpyCop describes itself (www.spycop.com), and see if your other apps are already doing that. And if you haven't already, take a look at the malware part of the forum.
But yeah, if there is some built-in logging on XP, I'd be curious to hear about it.

Isn't the idea of setting up users accounts protected by passwords done to prevent just this sort of thing happening.
Perhaps someone can explain that more fully.

we can help describe what's going on for you and explain the "hows" but...(personal opinion) you may do better by talking to your wife (and possibly having some counselling?)...spouses "spying" on each other is USUALLY indicative of MUCH larger issues (i.e. trust issues)...if she's doing it to be a show off...then she may have self esteem issues (maybe there's something that you do better than her that you always gloat about?)...i suggest that you and the wife have some long discussions about this and consider speaking with a marriage counselor (or a priest of trusted family friend or whomever you feel comfortable with) the underlying problem won't get solved here

so can anyone explain where all of the history resides in windows? or what else could be the deal.

It's possible that she's simple looking at the MRU (Most Recently Used) lists, which can be seen either in My Recent Documents on the Start bar or in the 'File' menu of most programs in Windows.
AdAware can clean these.
