But if they don't, but have a decent router/firewall then it's easy enough to pull up real-time logs which devices are connected to which IP addresses. From there, it's a simple matter of finding out what the remote IP address belongs to.
That's more trouble than it's worth, though. If they wanted to monitor you, they'd just buy software that lets them do it. And the fact that they're monitoring you or have the right to do so, would be included in your employee contract.
More than likely no there is no IP tracking software on your PC (which is the front line for most IT guys, save for FBD ^ up there who knows more than 80% of em), but make sure you have your browser set to delete your history when you close out, and clean out your temp files (cookies and crap like that) regularly. A good way to keep everything on a beginners clean slate at the very least.
