The best way to know is to see the watch log or history of your visited webpages. You can find which websites were visited and if any was for ordering.

Look at the page history in your web browser. Other than that, there's no hard and fast way to see if your computer was used to order something on the internet; internet sales aren't logged in any standardized way.

Two things: check browser history and cookies which normally have some trace of ordering - then check your paypal and credit card. It may not be possible to tell absolutely.

It's going to be far easier to lookup recent purchases using their/your debit or credit card. Check with your ISP for a list of sites using your IP address.

Search your web browser's Help function to find the 'History,' and look in the history for any secure web sites. These are possibly used to order.

Search the computer's history and cookie folder's.If these are deleted it may be impossible to see if some one used this computer to order online.

If you want to find if someone else used your computer just check the history of the browser software installed on your computer.

Your web browser is equipped with a "History" feature that allows you to view all the websites visited on your computer.
