Thanks for the reply, I should point out that although I am very careful normally- on this occasion I was not.
I am aware of checking each individual process on the task manager and have done that after reinstall and all looks good. My main worry is what has already been obtained and viewed. From what I have described -what do u think this hacker had access to?
I have downloaded that software you suggested and all is well
Hi all
Many thanks for the replies, I reinstalled my pc after this hacker got in and I think everything is ok- but how can I be 100% sure? I am running norton internet security and firewall, peer guardian and avg-is this enough or what else should I install?
I am worried the hacker may still be able to monitor my pc- is this possible even though I have reinstalled? As I connect to the net via a router I am on a static i.p-can my i.p be used to manipulate my pc still?
Another thing that has been bothering me is-i think this guy had acess to my pc for 1 hour- would he have been able to look at anything he wanted? I have personal information that I would not want to be seen-could he have seen this? WHat could he have uploaded from me?
As I said in original post, the messages came by the way of error messages with txt in the box- what kind of hack is this that can do this and reboot my pc. I would be relieved if I knew this type of hack could only netsend me and reboot my pc- I am just worries that my security is compromised and this can happen again
thanks I will do that now- how is it that they would know my real name etc? Can this virus allow them to obtain information off my pc?
I am really freaked out and am worried in case this person can obtain more personal information. Will the avg download allow me to remove the virus etc?thanks again
