  1. How can another indivual track my computer activity and know when I'm surfing or doing...


    This subject may not be one for the Microsoft community but hopefully someone can identify the problem and provide a solution. By way of explanation, I know that someone can track me when I'm on my computer and then send me spoof emails or make spoof phone calls. I know for a fact that the person can receive or access emails which are not sent to him/her because they can send me a spoof email or phone call immediately upon me accessing my computer. Moreover, I know that he/she has obtained my cell phone no., which is known to only a few people, because several weeks ago I gave my cell no. to another party via email. In that same email I also provided the phone no. of another party and that other party is now receiving spoof phone calls. By spoof phone call I mean my phone rings and displays an unknown name and an invalid phone no. On the few occasions that I picked up the phone there was no one on the other end of the line. I know these calls are not from telemarketers. Over the past year I have perhaps received over 300 of these phone calls. I called my ISP who provides my landline phone service and they are unable to trace the origin of the phone calls or emails.



    I don't think that the bully has hacked into my computer because I have not noticed any apparent changes to files or other behavior which would indicate any malicious intent. However, he/she is likely tracking me by some type of program or GPS tracker which allows him to read and/or receive emails which are not intended for him/her. Moreover, he/she also knows when I'm on my PC. In fact, he/she is likely watching me author this narrative.



    I have McAfee anti-virus installed as well as Windows Defender so I feel I'm protected, however, he/she is somehow monitoring my computer activity. On several occasions I have changed my IP address and the bully still can monitor my computer activity.



    My OS is Windows 10 and I use Windows Live Mail.



    Can someone in this knowledgeable community provide some suggestions and/or a solution to this problem? Is there something amiss in my settings? Should I look for type of program that has been installed through an unsuspecting email or other method of implant? Any help would be appreciated.

    :)

  2. Anti-tracking software for Windows Phone

    Hi there, I am still wondering if anyone has recommendations for anti-tracking apps that can run on Windows Phone 8.1 so that Facebook etc can't track my web-surfing and other activities on the phone.

    Surely someone has some suggestions! How can another indivual track my computer activity and know when I'm surfing or doing... :)
