What I got from this video. How to Check if Someone is Remotely Accessing Your Computer 1. Open up Task Manager and look for rogue programs. 2. Run programs that look for roque programs. Thanks, that helps a lot.

[@BillAnt]

lol

[@leecowell8165]

Unless of course they're ain't no "Task Manager" what then? Yeah under linux WTF IS THAT?

[@OldManJimmy1]

Yeah, when you get a computer running Windows virused or malwareed up it's never the same just cleaning them off. Seems to leave glitches and issues from then on. Clean install of windows is the way to clean this up. Thanks for the tips on keeping an eye on malicious programs infecting our PCs

[@leecowell8165]

No. The way to clean it up is to install linux because guess what IF you don't within in a month they'll be newbie malware on your box.

I just recieved my first high end router in my entire life (it was a Christmas gift to myself (early I know) for completing several projects at work) and I never knew just how powerful a router can be for security once configured properly. Your channel and others like it have been a great boon for a lot of people out there and we do really appreciate the hardwork you do to educate people. Seasoned IT professionals and amateurs alike always have something to learn in this field. (There is too much for us to know everything!) Thank you so much, Mr. Britec!

[@kpv123]

This is Michael. I usually like your work but this was pretty useless. The first major fail is that you don't tell people how to disable remote access. The second is that there's no way the average person can know what's a rogue program when there are so many weird names on programs in the operating system both in terms of processes and services. The only useful things you said were to get a good antivirus program and utilize process Explorer

[@Pancajayna]

There are literally thousands of files and processes that he can't even start to address for the "average person"... this is a first step and then you can HIRE a tech if you find something OR you can check the names one by one and research it YOURSELF... what do you really think this is?

Unfortunately there aren’t a lot of accessible options when it comes to anti virus/malware software for us blind users. We are an underserved demographic in this regard.

[@flashwashington2735]

There's all kind of blindness, you'd know better than me. However, everybody needs help some times, pray and act to get it. Don't let your eyes be merely be one \ among other avoidable impairments. Life is hard enough my friend. God bless. God is still in business healing. If you believe it, if you want to believe it. Get help with your believing. Like the Father of the possessed son, Some might say epilepsy, 'I believe. Help thou my unbelief.' He asked the master. He got results. Mark 9:24:21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child. 22 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us. 23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. 24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. 25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. 26 And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead. 27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. Remember: Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. God bless.

[@alfonzo7822]

That's actually something I had never considered. I'm currently a Cyber Security degree student. This is giving me an idea for a program/app for those with visual impairments. I'm sorry it doesn't help you just now, but hopefully there will be things in future that can help you navigate these kinds of issues better.

I worked for a terrible employer (…didn’t know this til the end…). I was an outside sales guy where I used my personal private home computer, on rare occasions, to do some work related tasks - simple spreadsheet development, print an email, etc. Well, to my not knowing or being notified they somehow gained remote access to my computer. They could see everything, every click, every mouse move, bank accounts….ALL! It was not good, felt violated & all sorts of the like. Wish I would have known of this video content back then.

[@Etleng-yf9fq]

Same happening to me. People are abusing their power.

[@MrPir84free]

I believe you failed to mention one of the best countermeasures for a typical system is to create and use a regular user account for everything, put a strong password on the administrator account and use it only when needed. I work IT, and even at home, I refuse to run as Administrator for things like browsing the internet, or doing darn near anything else. It is JUST one of many measures that one takes to keep their system clean. It matters not if you are using Linux or Windows, the concept is exactly the same. Not running as Administrator is one of the best things one can do for their own computers; sometimes less convenient, but better practice. Some folks may think that this is about merely finding out if one's computer is compromised; and how to clean it up; but staying clean is part of the problem.

[@Britec09]

I made videos on that before, no one wants to run as standard user.

[@Absamo97]

I mean ... if the attacker got into your system its a matter of time that he can privilege escalate his user to become admin and take over your machine, so instead of limiting my self with some features or have some limitations I run my system as admin all the time and I believe most of the people do this.

[@lordhriley]

​@Britec09 well you can't very easily with windows making u use a Microsoft account to log into your computer.

[@leecowell8165]

By default you're not running as Admin in linux. In fact without doing so you cannot access anyone else's /home directory on YOUR system without their knowledge because you need THERE PW. So never run as Admin by default on a linux box. The only way to access everyone is you need to elevate your user level to Admin. That means you need access to the box itself because it ain't happening remotely without the PW.

[@maureneschlosz6404]

Wouldn't it just be easier to type a netstat -a command to check foreign connections?

[@Lachausis]

not all viruses connect to the web. Some are just there to screw your OS up. So both, I guess.

[@eddiesneeh4266]

Part of the problem is Windows is so primitive they allow any program to get installed anywhere the creator wanted even in the OS area. The OS should be protected, no one should be installing anything in the OS directory. Each application should be installed under its own tree, and it should not require root for installation. Applications should not be using OS locations, OS utilities, OS "registries", OS anything other than using shared system libraries (that are read-only). This chaotic, messy setup that Microsoft has created makes it difficult to see if a process is legit or not.

[@WatchesTrainsAndRockets]

You have a decided advantage in spotting rogue programs when you installed the rogue programs yourself. It's more problematic when someone else did it. In my experience, most of the rogue programs that plague Windows were put there by Microsoft.

[@petefluffy7420]

Oh very easy. Look for rogue processes, there is one problem immediately apparent. Nothing is ever identified as being rouge.

First, change your passwords. Second, enable 2FA/MFA. Require all active/current sessions to log back in. Whomever was logged in (if any) will be kicked out and can only reconnect if they have access to your 2FA/MFA solution. To answer your question specifically, usually you can go to Profile > Security and you'll see "session logs" and you can see when/where your most recent logons occurred.

WHAT "Task Manager"? I don't have one of those and in fact haven't had one for over 20 years. Now just WHY is that? Because I run LINUX, that's why! And so should you because IF you did you would NOT have to be concerned about ANY malware and here's why: Because NTFS partitions are protected by the OS... but ext4 is protected by the partition itself. That means if YOU don't have the PW you are NOT getting IN! This is why I can boot any windows box with a LINUX stick and steal EVERYTHING within that box and there ain't nothing windows can do about it because it hasn't even been booted! But because there's NO PROTECTION at the FILE level guess what I can do? Anything I want. But that is FAR from the case on a linux box. The bottom line here is that to install malware code the bad guy MUST HAVE ACCESS TO THE BOX! It doesn't matter WHAT instrument they're using, see? And on linux you gotta have the PW or trick the STUPID user into giving it up. Well most people that run linux ain't stupid or they probably couldn't even install it.

Only applies to the Windows platform. Mac has no issues. 90% of all remote access happens at the Kernel level. Mac has build-in protection at the Kernel level.

[@leecowell8165]

so does linux... its called protection AT THE FILE LEVEL rather than OS LEVEL. I'm not familiar with MAC but they probably use a similar partition scheme because that OS IS unix based.

For worst cases, All-in-one solution is to install new windows image and reset all settings to default immediately.

Make sure they have their license key... Worst case, you would *restore* Windows and select "Reset this PC." Now you're not having to manually reinstall/reimage anything or deal with license key issues and you have a new/clean Windows environment.

[@sissaboolives2012]

Hmm wouldn't it be nice if Windows would supply the software that scans the pc for this sort of thing, you know, put the running programs thru queueing algo and warn of any programs it does not recognize so the user can confirm if it is a legit program or not. And, add to the queue any programs the user has approved for installation. This should remove viruses and malware.

Is there a way to add a column to process explorer that shows any remote addresses a process may have? It would make it so you don't really have to go through each one. I can imagine some of those rats having names that sound very similar to process names found in Windows so that you might not see them as easily. It would be similar to the way some websites might have a strange character in the name that looks similar to the one in our 26 letter alphabet (unless you live somewhere the alphabet is different). Also it would not be a bad idea to have a good known clean installation media made for the OS of your choice. This way if it is a computer that will have personal stuff on it that you don't want stolen there is much less of a chance that it would happen. Just don't change your passwords and other stuff on a machine that might still be infected since the malware is likely to just send those to the person who hacked you and then they don't really help. You may even want a separate computer for personal stuff like paying bills and other similar things. It would be a computer that doesn't really have any extra software installed and is also one you never let anyone else really use. For those purposes that one can be a little NUC and then it would take a lot less desk space than a typical PC while having all of the functionality. They are not something that I would game on but they would be good for trying out Linux if you are not ready do install it on all computers. I really have only installed Linux on a spare PC just to get used to it before I ever attempt to switch the other ones over. It is just a spare one that I can use to learn to get used to Linux and has no data on it for me to worry about losing accidentally and nothing sensitive to worry about falling into someone else's hands.

What if you have no wi-fi or internet. And I tried to disable all Wi-Fi connections or network connections in the laptop can somebody still access it remotely if they were nearby? I have a feeling that cell phones can actually access your devices is that true?

[@jjann54321]

If you disable the Ethernet and Wi-Fi (wireless) adapter as well as Bluetooth adapter/app/service there's no (reasonable) way someone can connect to your computer. A phone can only connect using Bluetooth (via tethering) and in most (all?) cases you have to authorize access and physically be close to the device/laptop. If you are THAT concerned with security you may want to look into running TAILS from a "live USB" or (micro)SD.

They still sell computers? People still buy them? I thought people used their hand held device that doubles as a communication device

[@leecowell8165]

Hand held devices are toys. I build my own boxes (I've never purchased one at the retail level). However I do modify laptops because I can't really build those because nobody sells the "shell" separate from the mobo. Also with the exception of very pricey "system76" selling linux boxes nobody sells linux preloaded. thus I wind up wiping NTFS on laptops, upgrading the default SSD that these now come with to an installed 2nd HDD and installing linux there and reformatting the SSD to a backup partition. Acer sells graat laptops at great prices because almost all of them have the capability of installing a 2nd drive. Everybody with a brain needs at least a laptop but really smart people have boxes as well. I run BIG dual monitors as well that way I can watch all kindsa stuff on them. I don't even own a TV. Ever try watching a feetsball game on a toy or even a laptop? ridiculous.

And if I click NO, it says, the remote user has "declined" your "request" to disconnect. I mean what the hell is that! Why should I be the one requesting and who is he to decline it! To resolve this I simply reset my PC, with all the files removed and installed a fresh Windows. BUT I DOUBT THAT WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM. Coz as far as I could understand the cracked software's job was to just extract the sensitive information like IP address etc of my device, now once done that, even if I reinstall the windows, but the IP address will remain the same correct? It's been 10 mins I reinstalled and haven't got any creepy remote connection notifications. But my doubt is, whether the problem is really solved? Or not? Please please please answer.

Does Resetting the PC and Reinstallling Windows will help in this?

[@jjann54321]

Yes, "restoring" Windows and selecting "Reset this PC" will essentially reset your Windows machine as if it were new. When you reinstall Windows you are required to enter your Windows license key which 99.9% of Windows users don't have.

In stead of reinstalling windows 10 if you install windows 11 would that clean up any virus and malware and save my current apps and files. Thank you

No, it won't. If you do a fresh install it will remove the malware.
