Not that it needs me to convince anyone but I can say that Neil built my pc 3 years ago and it"s still running like new*.

*I really hope this is not a self bok post.

Update.. today is the first day since I was hacked that I have not had to change passwords on FB and email.. ( obv bok lol).. Dunno if this is cos they where out celebrating the new year or what.. Although I have received a dozen or so emails from PcGameSupply.com that they had received orders for loads more UKash vouchers, fortunately all these orders where declined.. Paypal and credit card still have pending transactions from hacker but I"m covered with the fraud protection so not to worried..

So after my recent scans the only malware threats where from Pacific poker hmmmm so i has to uninstall 888. Com.
Now I can"t reload software!! So thought I would try quick play through browser.. Yesterday no problems was able to log in.. Today I try and get a message saying I need to install the new version of adobe flash player, no problem I click on link, then my malware software Emsisoft goes mad telling me not to install as it contains a virus and will put my pc at risk. The message explains there is a virus that can infect your pc with a backdoor Trojan and is a high risk and not to allow by any means.

This is so frustrating dont want to risk another virus attack, but I have never had problems ( all though this is what I think) before with 888.. I have to believe the software as the deep scan I did brought up only faults with Pacific poker..

Any ideas Neil? Or anyone else who might have a clue.. Remember your talking to a complete techno phobe lol I couldn"t even get the Vista sp2 update to install asked me to download another update from windows which had a hot fix kb947821 thingy ma jig that wouldn"t install lol grrrr

Clare

Was there any money missing at any time?


no.  a bit different in my case i guess as the hacker spun my $13 up to $110 before they froze the account, and didn"t appear to try to transfer any of it anywhere.  Presume they"ve divvied what he won up between the other people in the games.

just got my account back, let"s see if i can do as well :)

on a less positive note, it appears someone accessed my email account and changed the password again last night from an IP address that appears to be in Iceland (although realise that"s pretty much irrelevant).  Have transferred everything over to several new gmail email addy"s all set up for 2 step verification and left nothing in the old account.

My response to a PM from Claire moments ago ...

Assuming you have a 32Bit version of Windows (please check by Start > right click Computer > Properties), I have uploaded a free trial version of the ESET AV4 software for you to my server - see

http://www.itw4.co.uk/eset/eav4_nt32_enu.msi

Save it to your desktop (or somewhere easy to find) and install it normally. I would advise that you get rid of anything else Anti-Malware and Anti-Spyware related first though as it may cause problems with the installation.

Anyone can feel free to take advantage of this offer if you want to try a proper paid-for AntiVirus software.


If anyone wants a free trial version of ESET AV5 (I would not recommend the Smart Security for novice users as it can be fiddly to configure), get them here http://eset.co.uk/Download/Software/Product/EAVH

FWIW someone has definitely been on my Facebook and messaged very childish rude stuff to one of my friends. I"ve now reset my passwords for Facebook and Hotmail but will download Neil"s scanner when I get home after work as Avast picked up 2 virus programmes on my PC last night. Well done to Neil, a star as always  8)

There don"t seem to be any infected files on my computer.

The security on sky email really is a joke though.  I won"t go into detail here, but it really is very easy to get hold of someone"s sky account with just a few details that aren"t very personal, and probably quite easily obtainable.  Anyone that has an email account with them, I would advise dumping.
