PC behaving badly
 

For a couple of days my pc has a will of it's own. Sound is turned off by itself, the pc beeps at me and also the run command appears. Something is happening. I've used Spybot, Adaware and also scanned pc using McAfee. Firewall is set up but I think someone has access to my pc, how can I check this and stop it. Your help is greatly needed! :(

:welcome: to CF

Have you downloaded and run any 'unsafe' software recently? What firewall do you have in place?

I would suggest you download Hijack This and collect a logfile. Then visit the automated analysis page for a first pass on the log. Anything that the analysis flags as suspect, post on here and we will try to advise.

Have you spilt anything on your keyboard?
Maybe a sticky windows key could be the culprit..

Re: PC behaving badly
 

I recommend what Aragorn said, also run Adaware on the Full Scan instead of fast scan, it may find something, also I would download and run CCleaner

Use that to flush your cache's out and clean your registry, then pop into tools and check whats booting on your start up.

Alternatively goto start/run/ and type in msconfig and disable any "strange" startup items. If your not sure post here and I'm sure we can nail it down :D

if your worried its a hacker simply test machine with no net connection

I personally would install avast antivirus allow to update then run a scan in safe mode

when you say your pc beeps at you ? when exactly does it do this?the run command? do you mean command console?
