Does teamviewer unattended access give webpage info
« on: May 18, 2014, 05:11:12 PM »
Does anyone know if web page searches and web sites visited etc, can be seen in report logs in Teamviewer Management Console when you have agreed to give unattended access to your PC?

I'm not referring to opportunities when they sneak access if I leave my PC unattended, I'm referring to official reports available to them from the paid management console service. I understand they see when I turn the PC on, what hardware I have and software etc so they can help with any health issues on my PC but I'm a little concerned how far this monitoring can actually go. Thanks in advance.

No logs like that are available from the supplied logs, however sending those things to them from your computer via a hidden script is pretty easy.

Seems like you have trust issues, in which case you should re-think allowing them to access your computer

Thanks for your answer. It's just common sense to want to know what someone can look at on your computer, I don't see that as a trust issue.

When you say hidden scripts, do you mean hidden as in normal system files feeding back official data usage, or do you mean hidden as in unlawful and deceitful?

I'm not concerned they will do anything deceitful. It's learning whether or not my business colleagues have the official option/ability to look at my computers searches and webpages visited through an official hidden script if they decide one day to just have a look?

I mean this type.

In some countries it is NOT illegal, and is expected.
Also, your work can tell this stuff by checking logs of their router or firewall. They are probably going to block some stuff at these places too.

TeamViewer doesn't give any new opportunities directly.
