You bet! .. as it pertains to anything past their demarc at their
properties, they're entirely free to log and review every packet that
comes/goes.
That means they can legally review your IM chats, go back and read your
email from a month ago, whatever ...
The legal precedent for this is essentially "He who onws the network,
owns the data" (with respect to an employee/employeer relationship).
It's a bit different for commercial ISPs.
If your mom works at Kohls, don't email her there unless you want it
read (unless you PGP/gnuPG it). Then again, they could just have Spector
installed on the PC to capture screenshots/keystrokes of her at her
"company computer" (also completely legal).
