hey guys. i need your help desperately. my pc got hacked big time.
i was working and all of a sudden i got logged out (win 7 switched user) and now my password is invalid. i immediately unplugged the internet and unplugged the router. currently posting from phone. i have a shitton of data that might be compromised. please help guys my livelihood depends on this.
Just boot up on a live CD, back up your data and reinstall Windows.

no chance of the data being compromised as well? do i have to worry about someone accessing my paypal and dropbox and email? or is that being overly paranoid
Install Gentoo

If that's the case and you don't keep backups, you deserve to get all your shit destroyed.

Given you unplugged the internet immediately, you'll be safe. Better take one or two precautions though

how's that "common sense" treating you now?
