Illegal network activity

Hi,

I have a wireless router connecting both windows and linux systems at home. I've discovered someone has been downloading illegal content on my network simply because they accidentally left the torrent downloader on their screen when showing me something. I removed their access for a few days as a punishment and told them never to do it again or I'd disconnect them permanently. I've just discovered by similiar means that they are still doing it. I can't trust them to obey the rules but I don't want to blanket ban them.

How can I monitor and log network web address accessing to my linux system? I know people are gonna shout hacker and other other dictator type comments but really I'm just trying to stop illegal activity on MY home internet network, I can't trust them, they've proven that, but I'm gonna get more grief if I remove their access and I'm not letting it carry on.

Thanks.

rcinet

rcinet(8)						      System Manager's Manual							 rcinet(8)

NAME

       rcinet - Restarts, starts, or stops Internet network services on the system

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/rcinet option

OPTIONS

       You  must specify one of the following options with the rcinet command: Restarts the network on the system.  Starts the network on the sys-
       tem.  Stops the network on the system.

       You can restrict the restart, start, or stop operation to either IPv4 or IPv6 networks by specifying inet or inet6,  respectively,  as  the
       second parameter.  By default, the script assumes both IPv4 and IPv6.

DESCRIPTION

       The  rcinet  script allows system administrators to restart, start, or stop the Internet network services on the system while it is running
       in multiuser mode by using one of the options.

RESTRICTIONS

       Superuser privilege is required.

       Warn users that the system is being removed from the network.

       File systems that were not mounted using the /etc/fstab file or the automount command must be unmounted with the umount command.  You  must
       remount these file systems using the mount command after the network is started on your system.

ERRORS

       The rcinet script prints an error message to stderr if the network is not configured on the system.

FILES

       The network shell scripts are located in /sbin/init.d with symbolic links in /sbin/rc0.d and /sbin/rc3.d.
