you sister install a programm which we experts call 'keylogger' what ever you type will be saved as log file and you sis can read it laterevery key pressed by user(you idiot)
solution:-simply install a spyware remover tool to uninstall it i suggest (spyware doctor)

The instant messenger program you are using obviously has a message history feature. This can easily be disabled, usually using the tools or preferences tabs. However, you will also have to find out the location of your message history files and then delete them too. This directory is usually created in "My documents" if you're using windows XP. Also, as previously mentioned, you could also create a guest account to prevent anyone else accessing your personal files, including, fotos, music, videos etc.
Hope this helps!

Well I guess there are two things happen:
1. You have a chat history.
2. Your cousin install a keylogger program, so she can stole your password and view all of the history.
The solution is to go to task manager view the applications running, and if there is a keylogger application runs, or any suspicious applications, just turn it off.
Hope it can help.

If you are using windows XP, you can protect this account with a password. And create a guest account where people can use the computer without accessing your personal stuff.

To further prevent her from logging on secure your Admin account by setting a password. Otherwise she can start in safe mode and log on to an unsecure admin account ...

My advice to you is to set up a windows password. And create a "Guest" account.
