It sounds like you have spyware... or a virus... or both. You should really have a program. I like Spy Sweeper, AVG Anti-Spyware (this one is the best IMO), and Ad-Aware. I have more than one because there are things that one program will catch that another won't. Unless you have a psycho bf who put a keylogger on your computer (I actually had one do that to me, but it showed up as a virus and I caught him), I doubt that a person is hacking it.
Hmmm ok I don't have it protected because I just got this laptop and since I haven't paid my cable/Internet bill I'm not using my main computer which is protected ,I'm also using my apartments wifi internet connection which is why I wondered if someone here hacked it because when I go to list wireless connections there's a screen name that says "my wifi bitch (I hack) which is why I thought that.Also nope no psycho bf's.
someone probably hacked the WAP you are connecting to and changed the name. Easy to do if the owner didn't set security.
You need to run windows update and patch your laptop right now, then d/l anti-spyware and anti-virus and install them. Windows defender is a good antispyware app.
After they are installed, disconnect from the internet, start your computer in safe mode and do a full scan.
oke dokie .Thank yall very much
