If they cleared the cache AND the history, then it's probably way more trouble than it's worth.
But it sounds to me like you should be more concerned about the lack of trust in your relationship. If you're this untrusting, a better idea might be to just end things, or seek professional help.
You have a couple of choises to make, install a program that records visited sites find out he has and be appauled by it or install a program that blocks access to those sites.

On the above site you can down load a program on the first list near the bottom called: Parental Filter which is a porn site blocker.
Or you can install Norton Internet Security Professional with parenting control, either way if you do either Want he ask why?
Actually, it's pretty easy to erease history. It's easier to just set browser to not remember visited urls and set space allocated for saved pages to 0.
Parental Filter are for children, there are so many ways around that. It probably won't work on your boyfriend, trust me, I know.
Besides, it's normal for guys to look at porn. Why do some girls not allow that? One of my ex is like that too... Anyway, boys will be boys... ^_^
