  1. Is my PC hacked?


    okay so this is the issue I'm having I was being a idiot and downloaded something and now when I go to Google it says there is a administrator and it added a extension called "mazy search" and I can't get rid of it. I already turned my internet off on my pc just in case and then I searched on my phone and I found a ways to switch administrator in the setting but there isn't any other accounts there. is there a way for me to be able to get it off my pc or maybe is there a way to uninstall what I installed before if possible I deleted whatever I downloaded off of my files but I don't know if that was good enough

    :)

  2. OS X Leopard Hacked for Intel PCs

    Just one day after its release, Apple’s new OS X Leopard has already been hacked to work on standard Intel-based computers. Admittedly it isn’t guaranteed to work 100% yet, and is more than likely illegal in some way, but all you need to give it a try is a patched DVD image, a zip file with a patch and a USB flash drive. After that you’re just three easy steps away from running the new operating system on your Intel PC (SSE3 and later) but unfortunately there’s no AMD support available yet. As many PC owners have a slight dislike for Macs this may not be too appealing to everyone, but you can take a look at the procedure here.

  3. PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??

  4. Is my PC hacked?

    Pc hacked through remote access

    No expert in forums recommends Norton. I would not have it on my PC. Use built-in Defender which always offers best Windows performance with least issues, and is from Microsoft who knows how to protect their OS best.

    What makes you think you were hacked exactly. I gave you all steps necessary to prevent this.

    What did you find in Apps & Features that they installed on the dates you suspect?

    What harm or damage did they cause to you or your PC exactly? If you're unsure then the steps I gave will help determine this but I will tell you nine out of ten who report being hacked weren't actually hacked.
