Is there any way to visit someone's web site without them seeing?

I'm flattered that people think I'm some sort of creeper or doing something devious. I think it's pretty common to check up on people, be curious about them. Not necessarily saying it's the healthiest or most sane thing in the world, but I'm certainly no danger. I want to see what someone from my past is up to (not an ex) and don't want to give her the satisfaction of knowing I'm checking up on her!

I googled her and found that she has a web site, for her profession, and in the preview section where google shows you a line or two of what the site says, she is quoting something we worked on together and looks like she is taking credit for it! "I'm responsible for..." which is fine but a entire team of us worked on it and it's not exactly accurate. It's the past and doesn't affect me, but I wanted to see what else she said.

Like I said, won't defend myself that I'm the most secure or together person in the world but I'm not dangerous.

Well, yes, you're creepy, but creepy's becoming the new norm. People like me who're revolted by people like you are going to have to adjust.

Now that OP has explained, I totally don't think it's creepy. I don't blame you at all for wanting to check it out anonymously.

It might not be a bad thing for her to know you've seen her website, OP. If she's taking credit for other people's work, she probably *should* be nervous about that.

What happens if you use your Smartphone's browser? I know there's an IP address attached, but does the location come up as whereever you happen to be? Or where your internet company is? Or does it use the address associated with your account?
