MegaRanter Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I let some nice trusted friend use my Pc briefly a couple of weeks ago, and now she calls me up to ask me about things I said in IM messenger communication messages. I noticed yesterday that I am always signed automatically into messenger whenever I am in my hotmail pages. and the my conversations on messengers both pop up in the hotmail page and and the messenger normal windows. I have already signed out of the messeger from my email pages, what else do I have to do, and how could she have been able to get in and keep in from like 30kms away?

danbradster Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Maybe she knows the password, or maybe the person you were talking to told her about the conversation. Changing your password for hotmail and msn can't hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MegaRanter Posted March 11, 2011 Author Share Posted March 11, 2011 The person I was talking would rather push her in front of a high speed train than talk to her. she works in a computer software company, she says she just access it from using my IP number.

She shouldn't be able to access it from your IP (except through the use of an additional program such as a keylogger and your IP). More likely your password is compromised or she has put a keylogger or similar program on your computer. Using AVG Antivirus, Spybot Search and Destroy, and Adaware SE will clean your computer thoroughly. Plus you should change the passwords...

beano2274 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Just change the password that is all you have to do, and if using Firefox check that your password is not kept when logging in to check your email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beano2274 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 also check on MSN where your messages are being kept, you should find it under options, just uncheck the box which tells you it is keeping your messages stored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derifo Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 There's a keylogger installed on your pc. Reinstall windows, or use the programs mentioned above to clean your pc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nisa Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 MSN allows you to be logged in simultaneously in multiple locations but you should be getting a message that you are logged in in two locations. MSN can also keep a log of ALL your past messages with friends. You should see if you have this option turned on or off. Change your password but that will obviously not prevent any past damage from being corrected but at least you can feel secure moving forward. If I were you, I would change ALL your system and internet passwords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
