Is it possible, and if so what software is needed, to watch someone
browsing across a wireless connection? It is encrypted traffic but I
know the key.

Yes it's possible, but sounds like you're asking advice on how to
illegally eavesdrop on communication, and well, yer on your own in
breaking the law.

There are several. This one (for Windows) will keep you occupied for 30
days:

Then there's Ethereal (for *nix). Do some Googling.

It's now spun off and called WireShark:
<http://www.wireshark.org>
Both Ethereal and Wireshark are available for Windoze.

However, to use these for wireless sniffing, you need a promiscuous
mode driver for the wireless device. See:
<http://www.cacetech.com/products/airpcap.htm>
Only $200. Hopefully, you can get your investment back from the
wireless identity theft and blackmail proceeds.

It would be a whole lot easier to just confront your girlfriend on who that
guy she was seen with.
