Nope. It's their system... they are well within their right to do that. |

Nope. It's on a company computer, it is company property.
Just have him send an email when he returns saying that transactions from his computer while he was not present are not accountable to him. |

If the company needed to get on the computer, there's nothing wrong. employees have no expectations of privacy at work. Just have hubby change his password when he gets back to work-no big deal. Don't leave any files on a work PC that you don't want others to find. |

If they bought the computer, it's their password & they can do with it what they want, give it to everyone else in the compnay if they choose. |

if it is their program, no, its also their password (even though its the one he uses)
They can do as they wish |

If it's all company owned computers and software then it is not illegal in the slightest. |

Oh Boy!

You're joking, right?
It's the company's computer, computer program and time. |

Probably not - may depend on the industry (e.g. financial services). There may well be governing bodies (FDIC, SEC, etc.) that have guidelines etc.
It may also depend on the companies own policies - these should be written down somewhere. Personally, I'd request a new user ID, with the same priveliges & I would submit a memo, denying responsibility for anything done with the old ID, during the time of the vacation. |

in my opinion yes, passwords are passwords because they are supposed to be kept secret, as in you and your boss only, or just you depending on the job. its like a pin # for a bank account, you wouldn't want that shared. |
