I am concerned about excessive infringement of privacy in the workplace by people who have no business “shoulder surfing.” I have used the “netstat -a” command in the Windows command prompt, but this only gives the address of the active and listening connections, not clues to the actual reason for the connection.
To the inevitable chorus of lamers and IT-tards: I am not using my work PC to mess around. I was hired because I am a productive and engaged worker, and am only concerned about privacy. I am not asking this question to deny my employer’s right to control his property, but if I can determine that I am indeed being excessively monitored, I will find a better place to work.
As an aside, until there are laws in place to protect employees from this type of cyber-snooping, all of us should know the answer to my question. Network monitoring tools may have some justification, but it is in practice WAY too vulnerable to external hackers an internal opportunists. Thanks.
