Compromised Computer

5 min read

This thread's last reply is from January 24, 2009, 12:06 AM UTC. Software, malware, and removal-tool advice below may be out of date — treat specific steps and download links with caution.

I have recently posted on these forums, because of the suspicion of having a key logger. The suspicion is now confirmed and my email as well as other programs are having their accounts/passwords changed and stolen. I don't know how to fix or identify the problem. Please help.
