    So this happens. (Glitching desktop)

    So sometimes my desktop does this when not in use. It also does other strange things.

    It usually happens when I'm not around and when the thing is just.. Not idle but not being used. It just goes dumb. Any ideas?

  3. Strange things happening on my PC.

    how can I see who is logged in with my account on my company PC or another PC using my account? We are on a network, so I guess anybody could login with other accounts.

    Today, all of a sudden Photoshop was deleted from my computer. I literally used it 1 hour before. Strange things like this have happened before, and I believe someone is logging in with my account. The next thing I hear you asking, yes, we all have the same password for each of our accounts.
