View Full Version : am i being hacked?
i recently ran the check for problems on spybot and caught about 36 results. i clicked fix and it told me that next time i restart my computer it would do another check so i rebooted. after the check was finished among other malware i notice a very suspicious entry that said something along the lines of /c:....microsoftsecuritycenter/virusscan.overide.exe then right below it was /c:....microsoftsecuritycenter/firewall.bypass.exe.
does this mean someone is trying to get into my system and am i still at risk?
