Neo Somnum (ID: 0000009d69be9d50) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 02/22/2021 So... My mom installed it on my computer so she could see what I have done on my computer using WebWatcher and it's very glitchy and sometimes stops recording what I've done and my mom punishes me for its breaking down. I was wondering if there was any way for it to be fixed so it can better read my websites and always tell her what I'm doing.
