    Am I being hacked?


    This morning, I came to my computer and turned it on. I received some sort of error by Windows saying that it could not load the sign in menu or something. I clicked 'Ok' and it opened the Sign in menu it had a different background to what I usually have... and logged in my account like normal. Then, my wallpaper was reset, my cursor and everything. I lost all my files and everything. My computer was running slowly and apps would randomly stop responding. I was obviously worried, I checked my OneDrive but it hasn't saved my files. I ran CMD as an Administrator and ran:netstat -anoThere were

    Email Hacked

    Hello Greg

    thank you for your response and the great information you provided.

    I use two step authentication for my email account and all important web sites. I also use the full version of Malwarebytes to protect my computer.

    But I will do the scans you suggested AdwCleaner and Limewire.com and let you know the results.

    I am worried though that the webcam installed on my laptop could have been hacked. I never use it and forgot about it, so never disabled it.

    Any suggestions as to find if it was actually hacked?

    thank you

    mike

    System details:

    • Running Windows 10 on an HP all-in-one computer
    • Office 365

    Thanks for your help.

    Am I being hacked?

    77000 Steam accounts hacked every month

    Ironically I've had the same crappy password since I made my Steam when HL2 came out and never been hacked, but I've had my Origin account jacked twice with a much more complicated password. 2 step on Origin fixed this problem, but just thought it was kind of funny. I went with 2 step on Steam to be safe too.
