  2. hacked and locked

    Apparently you have something that is hacked and locked, but you won't tell us what it is. Here's some general advice for when you believe you have been hacked in some way:

    The first thing you must do is to protect your identity.

    You do not want anyone to pretend to be you on the internet. Take whatever steps you need to take to safeguard your identity. For example, you should notify your banks and other financial institutions that your identity might have been stolen.

    Forget about getting back whatever was hacked. It's gone. While you are spending time trying to recovery it, someone else is able to use all that information to pretend they are you.

    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
