Yup.just to make you morehe is probably using a non public key logger/trojan that virus/malware detectors won't have the signature for.
what if they are searching your bins as well?![]()
smash the hard drive up, set fire to it and bury the ashes in a secret location.
also put a sticker over your webcam b&w, he has probably been watching you get undressed... again this is what i'd be doing.![]()
This is probably the best approach if it looks badly compromised, I'd bin the hard drive as well for the sake of
I got caught with that Police e Crime Unit virus screen locker thing at the weekend, bastard posed as a Java update or summit, wasn't paying enough attention.
Had to pay up the £100 via UKash to get it unlocked
not
The guy sounds like a nudnik.
Or a schmuck if you will. (practicing Yiddish)
Betcha picked up "nudnik" from Judge Judy, Cornish. I know cos I did too :D
Was going to say as a temporary fix if you're really paranoid just turn off your Internet. Other posts cover most things though. I would probably just do a fresh install to be honest as people have said just for ease of mind. Unless you've noticed massive slow down on your computer it's probably something like a keylogger if anything.
You really don't need a new laptop. A reinstall of Windows will wipe everything off. Avast! and Malwarebytes are enough for me. Spybot is another to use. They'll pick up most things, in my experience. Hijack This is another, which will list anything running. Some spying programs will run undetected, as already said (I have prior knowledge of this). Just back up everything (pictures, music, videos - not programs, really) and wipe your laptop, then copy your stuff back over. Ask, if you need help.
hahahahh holy shit, that's fucking amazingDo you not remember when rockstar did that? (Sure it was him) was on some dodgy porno site and a huge pop up came "E-CRIME UNIT YOU ARE BEING MONITERED" , and his webcam came on and a picture of himself came onto his PC what that big message in capitals, he actually ended up ringing the local police as he just had to tell them that he wasnt looking at any pedo material and it was all a mistake.
Surely them posts havent been deleted... Best of EADD material...

Thanks Treacle, I think that exactly what I'm going to do. Tomorrow I'm going to get an external harddrive, and Im sure if my friend can't help me I'll be back in this thread begging for help again. You guys are all great.
how much stuff do you have that you don't wanna lose? 1-5gb of photos or whatever, just upload it somewhere. Google has a file storing service now, think you get a 5gb limit, there's minus.com.... 80gb of music may be a problem and require a drive.
Basically there is only one answer to this and that is to completely wipe the drives and start with a clean install, from fresh sources, otherwise you'll be paranoid forever. It's a total waste of time doing anything else.
Clone the drive first, the partition table and everything not just copying files, so you can still examine it safely later to look for anything dodgy, but treat everything on it as if it's infected.
I would make backups of your router settings so you can check them for anything odd aswell, before resetting the firmware and reconfiguring it.
It really is scary what folk with the knowledge can do to a unsuspecting innocent computer user. The gulf of knowledge between virus writers and the average web user is very vast indeed. I feel sorry for unsuspecting folk just wanting to surf the web being exploited and possible being involved in criminal activity. I think my computer is clean and safe, but is it? All I know is if it was happening I don't have the skill or knowledge to even realise it's happening let alone go about removing it. So like you say Shambles may just get on with it.
