> Just what I needed... I was "kicked off" the internet about an hour ago because SOMEONE ELSE had just signed on using my login and password. Ain't that something?!! I called my internet subscriber and asked them what was going on, and they told me that programs can be put on our computers without our knowledge that somehow make our screen name and password available to hackers. I guess I knew it could happen, I just never thought it would happen to me. They were actually using my ID for at least 4 days, and even sending out mail from my address. Isn't that creepy? It's like finding out someone has been walking around in your home when you were gone. It doesn't even matter if anything was touched... it's just the thought of it...

Those hijack programs can do much more harm than that. There is a free and easy to use program to solve this problem. Ad-aware, by lavasoft.
