    Getting rid of available networks


    My PC has a list of available networks that I am suspicious of. Apart from EE wifi, none of these appear in the available networks list of any other devices in my house. Also, the ‘Connect automatically’ box defaults to being ticked even if I untick it. I’ve looked through all my settings but can’t find the result I’m after. Is it possible to get rid of these networks completely from this list? I’m concerned that I may have a security issue….. Also, my PC doesn’t connect automatically to any of these networks. It will connect to my BT router not showing with no pro

    :)
