How can I know the password of WiFi stored in my mobile - security

I have bunch of WiFi names and passwords stored in my mobile but I want to know their passwords without making my mobile as root. Is there any way I can know that.In future, if I added any new password then can I stored them in separate file behind the scene.
I am using google nexus 4.

There is a way, if you can enable ADB (Android Debug Bridge) from the phone settings.
Just you need to do pull the file /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf to your pc. Contains the passwords stored.

Internet browsing history

Many of my friends use my cellphone and browse the Internet which uses mobile data (not a hotspot or WiFi). After that they delete their browser history. How do I know what they have browsed on my cellphone
If they're deleting your browser history, then there is not a way to know what they've browsed. (That's basically the point of deleting history)
Maybe there are a sort of thirth party parental controls that allows you to view the history on a different way, but I do not know if such an app exists.
I think there are other workarounds though, like tell them that they should not use mobile data when they use your phone, or don't allow them on your phone at all if you're not feeling good about it.

Loading a DocuSign document on initial boot

I am trying to make it so that when a user turns on their device (will either be a tablet or a laptop) a DocuSign document loads up immediately. The user must sign the agreement before using the device. After that I want them to have access to the device and each boot thereafter I want the device to boot up normally. Can anyone help me with that. I would prefer that the DocuSign document is a pdf, but the format is not the most important variable in this equation. Getting the idea to work is important, I'm completely open as far as file formats and computer languages go. The signed document would be sent to a predetermined email address. Thank you in advance for any help provided. -Domitros
Also, all devices will be running on windows 8
I was thinking of using a batch file to load the DocuSign document? But, like I said, I'm open to suggestion.
What I've done so far is as follows: I created a new standard local account. I set windows to boot up as the newly created user. On their desktop is only 1 icon, a shortcut to the Docusign user agreement that they need to sign. I'm set to receive notification when a document has been signed. Unless I can figure out a means of automation I will have to remote into the users device, via citrix, and erase the user mentioned above and set windows to boot up as the user with access to all the software necessary for the user to do their job. Seems like there is a better way, but I'm not seeing it.

Designing a multimedia website for CD

I need to design a mini website to give to clients. The site includes mp3s and videos which must be played within the site itself and not use any 3rd party media players. Is Flash the only / best solution?
I also need to protect these files. Is there a way that I can stop users 'exploring' the CD and not get access to the content?
Flash is a 3rd party component.
You might want to try experimenting with HTML 5 see the link below:
http://www.w3schools.com/html5/html5_audio.asp
This would make your websites functionality dependent on the browser the client is using.
It is unlikely you would be able to prevent users accessing the music files on the CD. Possibly you could store the data on the CD in an encrypted format and make your own custom active x control that decrypts the data on the fly. This would be difficult to do though. Do you mind if I ask why you want to distribute your site on CD? Why don't you just make a website and have user access control on it?

Bypass choose a digital certificate and present user with pin prompt

I am working with a c#.net application right now where I have smartcard authentication working properly, by allowing users to pick their digital certificate and enter their pin. However I want to do away with allowing the user to pick their certificate and have one of their certificates picked for them automatically(every user has the same certificates). This would make it so that when a user tries to enter the site, they are simply presented with a pin prompt. Any ideas on how to go about doing this? All the users I work with use Internet Explorer 7 and have workstations with ActivIdentity and Tumbleweed.
Write a Java applet to do the job at client side using PKCS#11 wrapper or, if you can restrict your users to use IE, create and use an ActiveX. I have already done both. For ActiveX you have to have it digitally signed to declare it as a safe ActiveX.
It is not straight forward task but I found Java applet easier to implement. The downside is that JRE (Java Runtime Environment) should already be installed at client side and plays nice with the browser. User also has to grant permission to the applet to connect to his smart card at first run.

saving username password in option.html and loading them automatically

I have created 2 extensions for websites that i do not own and they do not have an api.
when you open the extension, there will be a login screen, but when you close it, you'll be logged out, i want to either save the cookies so when you reopen the extension you'll be logged in or to save the password like lastpass and create an option page, but:
1- I do not want to host the database on my vps, coz i don't want to pay to maintain the extension if i have many users, and i don't want to keep protecting my database from hackers till death :)
2- I do not want to host it on any paid service
unfortunately, lastpass doesn't have an api, so i'm thinking of storing the username and password on the user's pc, and i do not care if he got hacked because it is his responsibility to keep his pc secured and not mine :) any idea or tutorial on how to do it?
and by the way the websites are created using .net framework
You can store information between browser restarts in localStorage.
