 Most computer problems are not caused by computer hackers, it is more common for a computer to be hijacked then hacked. It can be difficult to detect a hacker on a computer because nothing changes to help disguise the hack. Below are the most common things that change after a computer is hacked.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; clear: left; color: #2a70d0; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.29em; font-weight: 400; line-height: 1; margin: 0.3em 0px 0.9em; padding: 0px 7em 0px 0px;">
New programs installed</h2>
<div class="tab" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #454545; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.7em; margin-left: 2.5em; padding: 0px 7em 2em 0px;">
In some situations, you may see new programs or files to the computer. If you are the only user on the computer and new programs are installed, this could be an indication of a hacked computer. However, there are also several legitimate reasons why a new program may appear on the computer, as listed below.</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #454545; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 7em 2em 0px;">

<li style="background-image: url(http://cdn.computerhope.com/arrow.png); background-position: 0px 5px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5625; margin: 0px 0px 0px 2.5em; padding: 0px 0px 8px 26px;">When installing a new program it may have installed other programs. For example, it is common for plugins and other free programs to have a check box asking if it is ok to install a new Toolbar or antivirus on your computer. If these boxes are checked, new programs are installed.</li>
<li style="background-image: url(http://cdn.computerhope.com/arrow.png); background-position: 0px 5px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5625; margin: 0px 0px 0px 2.5em; padding: 0px 0px 8px 26px;">Any other person who logs on your computer could install new programs.</li>

Sometimes, after an online account is hacked the attacker changes the password to your account. Try using the forgot password feature to reset the password. If your e-mail address has changed or this feature does not work, contact the company who is providing the service, they are the only ones who can reset your account.</div>
<div class="tabb" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #454545; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; line-height: 1.7em; margin-left: 2.5em; padding: 0px 7em 2em 0px;">

If your password to log into your computer has changed, it may have been hacked. There is no reason why a password would change on its own. Log into an administrator account to change your accounts password.</div>

When an e-mail account is hacked or taken over, the attacker almost always uses that account to spread <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/s/spam.htm" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(219, 219, 219); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #663366; text-decoration: none;">spam</a> and <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/v/virus.htm" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(219, 219, 219); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #663366; text-decoration: none;">viruses</a>. If your friends, family, or coworkers are receiving e-mail from you advertising something like Viagra your e-mail is compromised. Log into your e-mail and change your e-mail account password.</div>

After changing the e-mail password, if your friends continue to get e-mails you have not sent, it is likely someone is spoofing your e-mail address.</div>

For any attacker to take control of a computer, they must remotely connect to that computer. When someone is remotely connected to your computer, your Internet connection will be slower.

Unknown programs wanting access</h2>
<div class="tab" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #454545; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.7em; margin-left: 2.5em; padding: 0px 7em 2em 0px;">
Computer security programs and <a href="http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/f/firewall.htm" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(219, 219, 219); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #663366; text-decoration: none;">firewalls</a> help restrict access to programs on a network or Internet. If the computer prompts for access to programs you do not know, rogue programs may be installed, or it may have been hacked. If you do not know why a program needs access to the Internet, we recommend blocking access to that program. If you later discover these blocks cause problems, they can be removed.</div>
<div class="tab" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #454545; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.7em; margin-left: 2.5em; padding: 0px 7em 2em 0px;">

Security programs uninstalled</h2>
<div class="tab" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #454545; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.7em; margin-left: 2.5em; padding: 0px 7em 2em 0px;">
If the computers antivirus, anti-malware program, or firewall that has been uninstalled or disabled this can also be an indication of a hacked computer. A hacker may disable these programs to help hide any warnings that would appear while they are on the computer.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; clear: left; color: #2a70d0; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.29em; font-weight: 400; line-height: 1; margin: 0.3em 0px 0.9em; padding: 0px 7em 0px 0px;">
Computer doing things by itself</h2>

When someone is remotely connected to a computer they can remotely control any device. For example, a mouse cursor could be moved or something could be typed. If you see the computer doing something as if someone else was in control, this can be an indication of a hacked computer.</div>
<div class="tabb" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #454545; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 700; line-height: 1.7em; margin-left: 2.5em; padding: 0px 7em 2em 0px;">

If the computer is dialing the Internet on its own, it is an indication that a program needs to connect to the Internet. It is common for programs like e-mail clients to do this to check for new e-mail. However, if you cannot identify what program needs Internet access, this can also be an indication of a hacked computer.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; clear: left; color: #2a70d0; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.29em; font-weight: 400; line-height: 1; margin: 0.3em 0px 0.9em; padding: 0px 7em 0px 0px;">

Internet browser changes such as your home page changing to a different web page, a new toolbar getting added, your search provider changing, web pages getting redirected are all signs of a browser getting hijacked and not a computer hacker.</div>
