HurFFiNatEr010 460 Posted June 14, 2013 Some douche hacked my computer. I opened an exe like a dumbfuck then 10 min later I hear the anon catchphrase come from no where. I start looking through Skype and the I hear "you can't find me". So I turned my computer off. When I rebooted within 30 seconds he says "welcome back Evan". He then proceeds to disable the icons on my desktop and I couldn't do anything. Random chat box opens the says what's up, I went along with it do I didn't seem mad so he wouldn't get what he wanted. Then says oh you password is .... And he was right so I turned off computer, went downstairs and changed every account password that matched.As of now my computer is in safe mode and disconnected from Internet. My antivirus won't open and it says task manager is disabled by admin. I'm moving my good files to flash drives then formatting and reinstalling. Is this what I should do? Any more precautions to take? This never happened to me before so idk what do 2 ROFL and Goldentongue reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghost X 710 Posted June 14, 2013 yeah best thing is to reformat the whole thing, because you never know what he could have planted on your computer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkPredator 1193 Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) Keep that computer PHYSICALLY disconnected from the internet until you've taken the right steps. I suggest formatting and re-installing windows to be safe. Your tormentor clearly took an interest. And because of that, when your're back up and running safely again, he may still be targeting your home IP, so get some firewalls set up. In the end, if its a script kiddy, the firewalls will stop him. If it's an actual hacker, you're fucked call the police. EDIT: Call your ISP and request a new IP and explain if need be. Tell them that they need to defend you better too if they argue and sound mad.

BlackStone 66 Posted June 14, 2013 I'm going to laugh if its infected a large sum of your files and you are fucked whenever you add them to another system or inject that usb to a system. 1 2 MikeHeadJanitor, Goldentongue and ctark reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Velo 2077 Posted June 14, 2013 Reformat, if you're desperate, unplug your internet modem for 6 hours (if comcast). Sometimes it will give you a different IP. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ctark 1983 Posted June 14, 2013 Make sure you isolate your computer not just from the internet, but all other computers in your house.Copy all files you want to a flash drive. DO NOT put this drive into any other computer!Reformat the computer, don't just re-install but make sure you actually format the whole drive, including any 'backup' drives / partitions.Reinstall your antivirus and anti malware programs. re-insert your flash drive containing the backed up files.Do a complete scan on all the files. Make sure non of this shit you talked about earlier happens again.Once you are happy the new files are not infected I would then re-connect directly back to the internet (isolate all the other computers from the network for a few minutes) and once connected, update your system to the latest service pack.Confirm that above shit doesn't return, and if you wish, do another scan of your computer.Once you are happy you have gotten rid of the virus / malware, feel free to continue installing all the other programs, and reconnecting the other devices to the network. This is what I would do, then again, I always do virus scans on all the files (not just .exe's) I download from sketchy sources anyway.It's a learning experience. Use it as such, and be more careful in the future. Also just curious, what is your login name for windows? (if you click start, I belive it's also displayed in the top right corner (depending on OS version)). Is it by chance Evan? 2 Ryziou and Goldentongue reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tell them that they need to defend you better too if they argue and sound mad. Do this, In your firewall settings make sure there are no unnecessary open ports. (ie. game ports, ftp, rdp.. etc)Some isp's will give a new ip if you disconnect your router for a few hours. GL Bro. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
