While searching for something related to the musical Chicago, I happened upon one of the following links. Coincidentally, I received a spam email for another such link. Is the universe trying to tell me something?
The following are three products for determining, in fairly creative ways, whether your spouse is cheating on you:
- Chatcheaters.com brings us the ominously named Spector. Spector is spyware tha apparently ‘records all their email, chats, keystrokes and Web site visits’. I particularly like the product endorsement stories from suffering partners.
- Of a similar ilk but far more fiendish is Lover Spy. “Using this very web site, you can very easily send Lover Spy as an e-greeting card. The e-card looks just like a normal e-greeting card but silently, this e-card will secretly install our award-winning spy software on their PC!” I find this hard to believe, and it certainly wouldn’t work for Linux or Mac users, who can apparently cheat with inpunity. I particularly like the box graphic, shown at left.
- From software to wetware: “the Original CheckMate Infidelity Test Kit will quickly and easily monitor your spouse’s sexual activity outside of the relationship by detecting traces of semen left in their undergarments after sex.” Sure, I suppose this works for women, but what if your man’s just a big wanker (literally, I mean)? More testimonials, of course.
You know who I feel sorry for? Private investigators. Used to be, you’d hire a gumshoe to keep tabs on your honey. Alas, another job rendered obsolete by technology.
There was also a story in the paper on the weekend about cheating Italians being hosed by their mobile phones.

wow -it’s so much easier than that to figure out if someone is cheating/lying to you. If you suspect your spouse is lying/cheating-just ask a question that they won’t know the answer to -like if spouse says “I went golfing in W.Van” (but really they were in Richmond cheating and you suspect this anyway) then you say ‘wow so you must have been caught up in that terrible accident on the causeway-I just heard it on the news” or something similar. bamo -so easy. If spouse is telling the truth -spouse will say what accident? If spouse is lying well then spouse is screwed really b/c spouse won’t know what to say -hesitation is a sure sign spouse is lying.
So, in short, if you’re cheating, make sure your excuse is geographically close to the site of your infidelity? Good advice, I think.
ya or pay attention to the news.
I’ve a vague recollection of a web site or service somewhere that provides alibis for cheating spouses. Can’t seem to find the url sadly.
I think the cell phone is the number one relationship killer for most people nowadays. Whether it’s a strange number that calls your partner in the middle of the night or the fact that you leave the room to talk when you get a call, the secrecy and need for it is causing mistrust. Most young people don’t even use the home landline anymore.
