ok so im on a network with a couple other computers, and im computer iliterate. Apearently i have something called riouter logging or somethin enabled onthe other persons computer, and they can see what websites im viewing, so is there a way i can view pages from my computer but not have them show up on the router thing?

In a word, no. All traffic goes through the router. The routers function is to take "traffic" and route it to the destination computer. Router logs are very helful for the home user to keep track of what is going on on their network. I keep a router log as well, due to my children getting online sometimes, and to make sure programs on my computer aren't communicating with a site they shouldn't.
