How can you tell if someone has "hacked" into your web site or your computer? Thanks in advance.?

Question

Hmmm...I guess you'll think this next question is stupid, but I searched for "logs", because I don't know where to find them. How do I find the logs and is their particular log search I should do, there were so many that popped up.

And, yes, I'll vote for the best answer, but I'm happy you're here helping me. :) Thanks!

If your Using Cpanel for your webhosting then check the last login. It should contain an IP. If it doesnot match your IP then trace the IP using Netbrute or other Iptracking software and getting that guy. Also try looking at the Ip of error logs and failed login attempts.

For your PC : get DU meter and monitor any suspicious activity on the network.Or use Kaspersky AntiHacker( comes with iolo system mechanic) www.iolo.com

( Warning : the guy might use dynamic IP ( dial up ), or even if you find out the guy , be careful cause hackers are known to be prepared for almost anything and might even kill you)

hi, there are some virus can hack your IE browser. i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can disable all virus to run, because the virus can only run on IE.

besides, firefox can block any any poppus and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE. as you know, most of the virus is spread throught internet and webpage.

firefox is much smaller than IE, so i run faster than IE.

download firefox for free:
