    Why is there box appearing on my computer screen?


    A black outline box is appearing on my senior mom's computer screen. Remote access software was installed as a result of a scam she fell for. The remote access software on her computer was on her machine for about 6 days. The box displays on her screen whether she is online or not. Also, it seems like her mouse is behaving strangely.
