K4xki Posted January 24, 2020 Posted January 24, 2020 I’m just wondering what are some things I can do to prove that someone has put malicious software on to my computer and uses it to spy on where and what I do. I have an idea of who it might be but I have no solid proof of anything, well I do but I don’t have the knowledge to retrace the steps if you know what I mean....any ideas would be appreciated! Thanks
Dice Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Well, you could use an usb stick and start spybot search and destroy Check open ports using netstat -an check all the installed software check all the services From another machine scan the machine with nmap check for a keylogger

As in someone you know? What is giving you the idea you are being spied on? Finding it is not to big of deal but figuring out who is another thing. There are ways to do so. And the likely hood is high that a system has something like this on it. For example tracking cookies do exactly what you are describing. There are many sites that try to use these for targeted marketing, links, etc. Need to monitor web traffic and check for open ports. Depending on the person's skills, if done sloppy, it will stick out like a sore thumb that you are being tracked.
