Spy on your lover

Your husband or boyfriend gets a phone call and before you can ask "Who was that?" he's off to the store to buy some milk—which is weird because you just went grocery shopping. Or he returns from jogging with nary a trace of sweat on his brow. Are you dealing with a cheater? He's likely not going to tell you and a private investigator will set you back thousands of dollars. So why not do your own spy work?

Ursula Lebana, owner of Spytech with stores in London, Toronto and Ottawa, says there are a host of spy gadgets these days that make it easier than ever to catch a cheater. "Last week, I had a woman who was very upset—she figured her husband was cheating. So she purchased a semen detection kit."

Lebana says the Checkmate Infidelity Test kit is usually the first one people, male or female, pick up. "You can test underwear, bed sheets, car seats, you name it."

Toronto marital therapist Marilyn Barnicke Belleghem suggests if you are suspicious use whatever it takes to find out if your loved one is cheating. "If you notice a change in their behaviour or if you have a gut feeling it's best to find out what's going on."

Focus your efforts with spyware

Experts advise that you begin your amateur sleuthing by concentrating on one specific area. The computer is a great place to start, especially with dating sites like AshleyMadison.com tailored to philandering married folk.

Lebana recommends investing in a program like Spector Pro Spyware (www.Spector.com) that can be installed in a computer. It acts just like a VCR and records everything from screenshots to emails and websites.

Get the car on your radar

Finding out where a lover is going in the car is also essential in tracking down an unfaithful partner. In these days of GPS trackers, it's easier than ever but Lebana cautions that you're only allowed to install one on your own car, not someone else's.

However, if you have one on the family car and you want to check out any little ‘trips' she advises, "Go to the manufacturers website, log in and it will tell you where the vehicle is now and where it's been."

    Thank you for this article. I was nervous and guilty when I placed a recorder in my husband's car. As a result, I heard him in his car with his mistress. It gave me crucial information in order to make an informed decision for myself and my family. What is needed as a safe place to exchange information on spy techniques that work and information on how people successfully stayed married after an affair and how people successfully separated. Most sites are merely places for people to dump on cheaters and this is neither helpful nor productive.

    Wow. This is one of the saddest articles I've ever read. If you reach the point where you're resorting to spy technology, save your money and go see a divorce lawyer because your marriage is over. On one hand, you may discover your spouse is cheating which is grounds for divorce. On the other hand, if you find nothing, your spouse is likely to become quite irate when you tell him or her that you've been spying on his/her daily activities. After all, you would confess that you've been spying or would you leave the technology in place throughout your marriage just in case?

    I just wanted to add that there are a lot other uses as well as simply trying to catch a cheating spouse with these apps. I have used a great app for BlackBerry phones by a local company, MobileZenith's Trackwary pro (www.mobilezenith.com) and although I have installed it on my husbands phone I also installed it on my childrens phones as well. They don't know it is there but it is tracking everything they do on the phone and where they are. I feel much more comfortable with these apps installed. If my family gets into some trouble I will easily know exactly where they are. And I can monitor their online usage and protect them from any internet preditors. These are not just apps for spying on cheating spouses but tools to protect your family.
