security over a home network??

[mac loverr]

Hi -

I have a mac powerbook, which i love! i use it all the time on a wireless network at home. my OH works in computers and i think he may be operating some kind of keylogging software over the network. he uses a PC and a laptop. the PC doesn't have to be switched on for me to be able to use the internet (firefox, naturally) but i have this feeling that everything i do is being watched.

is it possible that this is happening? he has access to my mac, but i've checked the activity monitor etc and there is no sign of anything having been installed. could he have installed something on his PC that monitors what i type?

looking for reassurance that my mac activities are safe!

thanks

No. Though, some routers record all the domains typed in and could be used to check on which sites people visited.
