    Hi All,

    I am new to this field. So need some expert advice.

    I suspect that i have remote key loggers installed in my system. Also i feel that my facebook, emails etc are being read by some people or are being screen grabbed.

    I have purchased Zemana and install it. I also have the full paid versio of Norton Internet Security 2012 for my system.

    Do i need anything else to install? I need a combo that will protect me from key loggers, all types of monitoring and surveillance softwares and protect my emails, facebook etc by warning me of its misuse even in my absence.

    Are there any software that will monitor my emails, facebooks, orkuts, ebays and all other types of internet accounts in my presence AS WELL AS in my ABSENCE and warn me of intruders or screen grabbing or unauthorised accessing etc?

    Any program or combination of programs that will give me system wide and internet wise full 360 protection.

    Please suggest

    welcome to the board.

    first thing first; if you suspect you system has been compromised then you should restore an image, or nuke/reformat the drive then re-install Windows.
    then you can worry about defensive measures.

    brace yourself for the non-stop suggestions to follow. ;)

    Thanks for the suggestion. I will definitely do a reformating.

    Other than SANDBOXIE any other good software or combination of softwares that will complement my Zemana and Norton Internet Security 2012 keeping in view my problem.

    I am particularly worried about unauthorized access to my emails, facebooks and other internet accounts. I dont think these are hacked. But i think some one has unauthorized access and they are opening it, reading it.

    Also are there any software that can show me where (IP Address) from my facebooks, emails and other internet accounts had been opened in the past lets say for past 7-8 months and give the same protection online as well as offline.

    Kindly suggest

    you can use malwarebytes antimalware pro.....and a good imaging software is must........you can also use hitman pro as a second opinion......

    keep you pc clean first.........then if you suspect others can access your fb from their pc......immediately change your password and security questions....then setup fb to um....I don't really remember the term correctly.....but now if someone tries to open my fb from another device, fb account will temporarily lock itself......and the next time I login fb says my account is temporarily locked and it has been attempted to log into from this ip .....it then shows the ip location in a map.......also an email will be sent to my login email address notifying me of the access......
    and do not use the same password for your every account(email/fb/twitter....etc) you can use lastpass or keepass for that.........use adblock plus (fanboy's ultimate list and malware domains), wot, bitdefender trafficlight and betterprivacy as add-ons if you're using firefox/chrome.......
