Unsecure computer? Possibly Hacked?

[Jeffwilson99]

Ok so this is going to be kind of random, but:

 

I tried to log in Runescape today for the first time in a while, maybe 2 months, and my password was incorrect, which was pretty strange. I haven't actually changed it for at least 3 years, so there is no way I could have had it wrong.

So anyway, I did the whole recovery questions jazz, and set a new password, and logged in. Strangely, it said I last logged in from this address 10 days ago : <ip removed>

 

I found this strange, as I hadn't loggged in for at least a month, and my internet service provider is not Orcon, it's Telecom. And I don't know of anyone who uses that provider.

 

Anyways, I googled that address, and the only thing I foudn was this:

 

461) <name removed>

Location:

New Zealand

IP logged Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1.8) Gecko/20071008 Firefox/2.0.0.8

Wanted: Alloy swingarm for a 1976 CR250 Mugen project. Any condition considered. Thanks.

 

Which was here

 

It appears to be some sort of part sawpping forum for motorbike parts...

 

I used this tool to locate the IP address, and it said it was located in Tauranga, which is a city in the North Island of New Zealand, over 1500kms from where I live. More specifically, <>. And googling this, I managed to find out that at <>, which seems to be home to a real estate comapny, a finance company, and possibly some apartments. So, yeah [bleep]ed if I know what's going on there.

 

 

 

However it doesn't look as though my account has been touched or anything, so it's a bit of a mystery as to what has happened here, or why. If someone has indeed tried to steal my account, I'm at a bit of a loss at who, or why, or what exactly happened. So yeah, any thoughts anyone?

First off, has your friendslist been messed with? :huh:

 

Second, have you run the usual suite of antivirus/antispyware/antimalware programs, just to be on the safe side? (Doesn't hurt to check!) :blink:

 

Third, could you have accidentally told anyone anything that would allow them to get in to your account? :mellow:

1 Nope.

2 Sort of, not a full scan yet (curently processing)

3 No, and it's been secure for over 3 years, and as I don't play anymore, I don't exactly talk about it or anything.

 

I'm not really that concerned, more just curious.

 

EDIT:

 

Ok, well a full scan has revealed a Trojan.bho..

 

Hmm time to upgrade internet security methinks

I'd encourage the use of multiple tools for malware detection. One "Trojan" generally brings friends with it.

 

If you get clean results from 3 or more tools, you might consider the machine clean for most purposes. I'd

still watch my bank accounts closely (if you do any I'net banking), and if you're a government employee or

high-level officer in a business, I'd tell my I.T. guys right away. ;-)
