Internet history of an user (IE and Firefox)

[Anonymous]

Well, in the last weeks I've faced a lot of new vírus that were not detected by an antivirus, so I had to figure out how they have entered in the computer. I've installed this neat action to check logged in user internet history, and it also works for files accessed:
1. get this great nirsoft utility http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/iehv.html
2. add this action:

\\server\share$\Lansweeper\iehv.exe -folder "\\{computer}\c$\Documents and Settings\{username}\Local Settings\History" 

That's it, you get the history and you can easilly know where that vírus come from, many of them are from google searches and they only install when clicking on the search result, if you click directly on the link it does nothing. I will not post examples since I could be helping to spread those vírus - they offer themselfs to the user as being an antivirus sofware,

I have setup BrowserHistoryView and it is working

Get it here: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/browsing_history_view.html

This is the action I used:

{actionpath}BrowsingHistoryView.exe /HistorySource 7 /ComputerName {computer} /VisitTimeFilterType 1 /StopIECacheTask 1

I still have to click OK but the setting are what works for me. The download page has the parameters if you need to change some.

All good... But I need to get history from IR11...

So the tool BrowderHistoryView from nirsoft looks good, but I can't work out if there is a way to pass the computer name to it automagically (rather than launching and pasting/typing the name).

This works great - I have a mix of XP & Win 7 boxes here so I added another action entry:

For Win 7

{actionpath}iehv.exe -folder "\\{computer}\c$\Users\{username}\Local Settings\History"
