  1. Unwelcome remote access


    So I’ve suspected for some time that somebody was visiting my system without my knowledge or permission and now I know I’m right. At the moment, I’m having malware issues, but that’s another story for somewhere else. I currently have my computer disconnected from the internet and even now, event logs are telling me about netlogon sessions and how things are being changed like I said.. there’s helper malware and how a restart is required, but I don’t know what for…. So I just back-tracked to a restore point that I believe was made during one such session. I’ve deleted netlogon.dll out of des

    Remote Access

    1. Follow these steps to disallow remote access to your PC completely:
    2. 1. Type “remote settings” into the Cortana search box. Select “Allow remote access to your computer”. This may seem counter-intuitive, but this opens the Control panel
      dialog for Remote System Properties.
    3. 2. Check “Don't Allow Remote Connections” to this Computer. You've now disabled remote access to your computer.

    Try these two steps and tell us if your issue gets solved. If it does not then your PC may be infected. Use a Good antivirus to remove the infection from your device completely.

    Unwelcome remote access

    hijacked via remote network access

    Sounds like you are the recipient of stolen goods. All of our work laptops have this feature where it locks the BIOS and hard disk remotely if stolen, misplaced, or after a certain number of failed access attempts to the data on the disk without the TPM key.

    I would suggest returning it to wherever you bought or got it.
