I'm sure no one wants to hear about your personal affairs except in the off topic section. But the Welcome Thread for the Computer Forum is at Official Welcome Thread And here's a brief for new members to review the Forum Rules

Obce the browser history and offline content are totally wiped that will be known as far as passwords and other things. For a complete wipe of all IE activity there are a few free utilities like Evidence Nuker and CCleaner that clear out all IE hostory and offline content.

Evidence Nuker is found at http://www.evidencenuker.com/

The freeware CCleaner also known by it's nickname the "crap cleaner" has the option to clear out all IE activity and clean up the hard drive as well by removing useless temp folders that take up drive space and includes a tool for the system registry. http://www.ccleaner.com/

As we can't verify your story, we can't help you, sorry. It could well be a concerned parent looking over your shoulder. If your story is true, however, you've learned a valuable lesson, don't cheat!
