  1. This link includes a brief description about what it does; andI don’t see any obvious reference to monitoring actual browsing… However… I would imagine that it maintains a log of sorts, and/or that the company IT dept may check that log at times…; or possibly have other (undisclosed to staff) software/monitors in use hat may track browsing?

    With security the way it is these days, any company might feel it’s wise(r) to monitor in some way; if only to detect possible illegal activities; not the least those leading to terrorism?

    However… this link which has contribution from a McAfee tech does seem to suggest it does monitor browsing,,.? And the tech of course offers the same wise counsel, as do many others, about what not to do on a company system…
