3 Ways to Find Whether Your Computer Is Hacked

These are the three basic ways to find whether your computer is hacked or not.

1. You will feel like your computer is haunted. 
  If you start noticing that your computer starts to act strangely, almost paranormal. 
  For example, 

• The cursor starts to move on its own
• Emails that you know were untouched in your inbox before suddenly vanish
• Passwords changed by itself
• Numbers and other characters appear on your screen automatically even when you did not touch your keyboard

   As soon as you notice any kind of the unusual activity listed above, follow these steps:

• Immediately disconnect your wireless or unplug your Ethernet cable so that the hacker cannot access your computer anymore. 
• Scan your computer with your antivirus software to remove any cookies or installed malicious software that the hacker administered to your computer.

2. Your internet connection becomes very slow.
  Hackers have to operate from a remote location to gain control of your computer. This will slow down your internet connection speed as more broad width is being used. There can also be other reasons why your internet connection is slow. But just to make sure, it is best to check your system logs to see if a second or third party has logged into your computer at any time. 
To do this follow the steps, 

Right click on my computer --> Manage --> Computer Management  --> Event viewer --> security

3. Your computer is always processing information. 
  Your computer is idle but your hard drive's LED still blinks? then it means a hacker has invaded your    computer or may be an update is occurring, but if if you are not updating your computer then you need to disconnect your LAN or WiFi immediately.
