My best protection is that I absolutely NEVER use social media, and absolutely NEVER conduct any financial transaction online. Then let them screw up my PC I can quickly and easily, format and reinstall the OS to get a week or so free of filth. My getaround is to never have anything on my PC that I can't afford to lose. The only real safety is to not go online. What with all the stuff sites can put on your computer without knowledge or permission, the very notion of "safe" or "secure" regarding the internet is ludicrous. You really did try to help, and I learned something about LAN settings as a result. I don't think Clamwin can uncover a hack, either. The other well-known programs find PUPs, but very little else. I do have Clamwin antivirus, and it does better than any I've tried, because it actually FINDS things. He can't get anything important, because all that stuff is elsewhere. My hacker comes back after a format, and has more control over my PC than I do. It might get a file or two from the hack, but it's designed specifically for malware.

I hesitated to use the fix app, because it automatically fixes everything it finds. If I have 5 tabs open, Chrome may actually have invisibly loaded 2-4 times that many. That slows me to a crawl, often making me have to quit Chrome and lose the tabs I'd chosen. (I've already stored important data elsewhere.) That's why Chrome loads each page several times. They probably substitute their OWN proxy script, which gives them access to EVERYTHING, even my PC files. This setting, though normal, is being used by my resident hacker. But if the setting isn't detected automatically, what settings will be used? I thought I'd have to find out from my IP and type them in.Ĭan I be sure the connection will load properly now?
