hi there,

first time poster here...

i was wondering if anyone could help me out. how do i know if i'm being spied on? i don't mean the adware stuff that companies send out. i mean if i'm being spied others in my home...if something has been installed on my computer.

thanks!

a good place to start is looking at the process that are being runned in the background. Keeping control of your computer with accounts and premissions help out alot.

Do you think someone at your house is watching your computer habits?

hi...thanks for replying.

yes, i suspect that someone at my house is spying and i'm kinda sick of it. all that they see is boring emails to friends but it is still an invasion of privacy, in my opinion. (obviously, i'm not on my computer at home right now.)

anyway, i need help! i am TOTALLY computer stupid and my spouse is pretty computer smart. i need to find something that will tell me if i'm being spied on without my spouse finding out. i know...sounds paranoid....
