Better yet, confront the problem with him instead of spy on him.

All you should need is the software. The hardware is not practical for spying on your husband, he'd probably notice. Just download the keylogger, and you should try to go to advanced options when you are downloading it. There you can look for "install on this user only", however, it usually doesn't have it. Also, make sure you uncheck things like "display in system tray", or "add shorcut to desktop". If it does this automatically, just send the desktop icon to the recyling bin, and empty it, and open the program and browse the properties (usually under file) for "display in system tray" and uncheck it. Also, create a hidden folder somewhere on your computer, like under a subfolder in my documents. make the folder, move the program there, and right click, go to properties, and select hidden. If it still shows, but is fuzzy, look on the file, edit, etc. bar for folder options. click the second tab, scroll down, and unselect "show hidden files and folders". Then, to make sure, I would search for the program, making sure the only search result is the place you hid it. To access the program, either go to folder options again and select "show hidden files and folders", searching for it, or typing the location in the address bar in windows explorer. If you put it under my documents somewhere, it will usually be C://users/your user account name/my documents/folder with program. If your husband uses a different accound, log in to his and do the same thing. If he has a password, on the welcome screen with the different users, hold ctrl, alt, and push del twice. then log in as either admin or administrator. you can then dissable his password under control panel and users, or you may even be able to access his account/documents and put the shortcut there. I'm sure there is an option somewhere on the keylogger with "begin at startup". You should make sure it's on.

The only practical option for key logging is software. If I was you I'd spend more time trying to get into his email or IM account if that is what you want to know about. You can almost certainly guess his password. If not there is free software to crack it.
More to the point if you suspect something, you should really sit down with him and just tell him that you feel like something is not right in your relationship and you're afraid he might look elsewhere, then feel out his response.
More sneaking around on your part wont fix the sneaking around on his part.

You don't want a keylogger, this is software which gets installed on your PC by a hacker and returns the details of your activity to them. this can include your credit card details, passwords, etc. There is monitoring software to observe the activity of your children, but I doubt this would help. An adult would more than likely realise it was there and either turn it off or remove it. I am sorry I can't be more helpful.

type in your search bar keylogger there is one available for 30days free trial. thats all you should need. download and install, you get access to it by putting a password on it. the keylogger hides on the hard drive so it cant be detected. this gives you the sites that people using the computer have visited and also the passwords used. hope this helps x

Software to save every key pushed on the keyboard. That is kind of illegal software is you ask me. But would be a good way of finding out the truth. It was on the Real Hustle. You can buy it but i don't know where. lol

There's a little gadget that connects between the end of the keyboard cable and the computer.
