MemberWOW…now that’s TOTAL disrespect. If it were ME, I would think twice before having those people in my house and lock up the PC. Sometimes in situations like that it is best to confront them. If you cannot be positive and you don’t want to accuse….you could always leave little messages in your PC somewhere….like: Enjoying yourself? Why don’t you look at “X” file…you might find some good information on me in there….in fact, why don’t you just get me and I’ll pull all of the juicy information up for you?

MemberTwo tools that should allow you to manually find any rogue programs, if you are somewhat knowledgable.
Rootkit Revealer will search your system for programs that are hiding data from the operating system itself.
Process Explorer is a good program that will allow you to take a close look at the programs that are running on your computer so you can try to determine if there is anything running that shouldn’t be.Keep in mind that on servers, standard procedure for a compromised system is to copy off any critical or unrecoverable data and wipe the system. For maximum security, you should do the same.

MemberConfrontation does not work with these people. They lie even when they know they have been found out lmao! It’s pretty pathetic if you ask me. Family is suppose to look out for eachother… but instead when those who did the spying opened my crap up to spy… they also opened it up to others who were complete strangers at the time which was dangerous.
I no longer have any respect for those who were involved. Nor do I see them the same at this point. Family can be more like wolves toward you than a complete stranger.
I’ve really learned a whole new world of lessons when dealing with family anymore. Some disgust me.
Regardless of what I do or have done.. it gives no one person the right to think it upon themselves to spy or butt in on my business. Sad really.
Thanks everyone for your help. BBB has been one of the best websites by far when it comes to getting the help one needs and meeting some great people.

MemberA bit more time consuming. But I find it works.
Hold down CTRL ALT and your DEL key all at the same time to bring up your task manager. Goto the processes section and it will show you every programme that is running.
Open up google and type each of them in individually. Google will usually tell you what the prog is and if it should be there. If it shouldn’t you can then investigate it further before deleting it.
I know its basic and time consuming, but it stops an anti-whatever deleteing something that maybe you dont want it to.August 2, 2006 at 11:18 am #135487icephoenix
