I need to monitor one employee which keeps removing his Firefox history or goes into private mode. What are the ways I can make Windows save its screen contents periodically or in any other ways lets me find out which websites were being watched?

DopeGhoti has a good point, and before you install snooping software on your own computer to monitor someone's usage without their permission, check your state's laws regarding this. I'm not a lawyer, but it would not be a good day if you were to find yourself at the end of a lawsuit while attempting to protect your business.
If a software based solution is needed, you might be better off setting up a proxy server, and have the user(s) go through there. All locations he visits would be logged, which you could then use that along with your workplace policy regarding usage of computer equipment. Don't want to fork over the money for an MS solution? Try Linux! IPCop, Smoothwall Express and other distros have been especially created for small offices which require enterprise-level security. When I use to consult, I would configure a x86 box with two NICs, IPCop and some addons such as a proxy server, updates repository (one machine downloads updates from Microsoft, the rest of the computers in your network get a locally cached copy) etc.

I suggest you code something in AutoIt. It is not that hard. There already may be an example program doing just this. Search here http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/forum/9-example-scripts/
