recently, i found some of my emails dumped in the trash, not junk mail.
this was after i cleared out the trash, and came back later. so, i
complained to hotmail abuse department and they said to go check my
firewall to see who might have done it. this was at a junior college
library. it has happened to me 3x now. can you please tell me how this
happens, and how to check your firewall log? is there such a thing?
another military IT man said to go to the library IT man, as they are
the only ones that can get into your account. does this sound right to
any of you? thanking any of you in advance for your reply, duffy.

chances are that the library has the computers set up to where you
cannot view much of anything having to do with the computer security
settings and logs. I'd say someone either knows your password, has
hacked your account, or you just forgot you trashed some emails. IT
people could have set up a keylogger of some kind anyone can have bad
intentions even an IT individual. Talk to your library and see if anyone
else has complained of this. Change your password frequently from
another pc besides a public computer and see if that resolves your
problem.

fedman: I can't reply personally because you block old people.

I went to library, and there is an IT man, but they won't tell me about
the firewall which is what I have to go to.

What is key logger? I did not dump my own emails. This has happened 3x
now. First time several months ago, and then 2 weeks ago, and lx last
week.
I believe it is hacking. Then, so I went to abuse, and got this very
long email address from abuse@msn, and they said go to firewall but this
answer comes from out of the country.

well duffy a firewall isn't going to show a hacker if he hacks your
email account it will only show someone hacking or attempting to hack
though a port on the computer or network covered by the firewall,
unfortunately msn cannot really do much to help you I suggest that you
change your password from a computer that you KNOW is secure. to me it
definately sounds alot like a keylogger. A keylogger is a program that
can record all keystrokes on a computer and where those keystrokes where
entered, thus giving whoever is in control of the program access to all
passwords you type in on that machine. They run invisible and can be
made visible with certain key combinations and are usually password
protected themselves. I do not know for sure but from my experience that
is what it sounds like you have encountered. Try my suggestion and see
what happens from there. Make sure you do not use any PERSONAL
information on any machine you do not know that is secure.

im on a junior college library computer. the IT man has control of the
logger key right? so he/she would know that information right. i already
went to them once, and they pleaded insanity.

I don't know duffy they may have a keylogger on it don't really know why
they would but if it was a possibilty he/she would do that, that's
something they would never admit to

This must be where the virgin nerds hang out..Let me get out of this
dump of a forum. All of you can kiss my d**k

ghostkast, we are not virgins on this forum which is very important
about computer hacking. and it would not hurt for you to pay attention
and learn something. about your comment, we are also not into that
activity you suggested, but maybe asp kicking, yes.

i would change my password and then see if it happens again.also make
sure you sign out and erase your history on exiting the browser.oh and
change libraries lol

still wondering why he even came into this topic if he has a problem
with it

r u talking to me or the other guy. he got lost that is what
happened...u know took a u turn in the middle of a forum, and decided to
back out ungracefully....and had to let us all know he was not interestd
in our subject. noone is until they get hacked. and i believe everyone
should get hacked at least once to know the terror involved with
this.
