Question
Brian, Everyday I get Pinged by a Hacker trying to get into my Computer. I get Pinged about 25-100 times every day. This has been going on for almost 1 year now. I would like to become invisible if possible. I have changed my IP Address and have used Proxies. I use Comodo Firewall. I would like to send you a copy of my Log. I need your E-mail Address for that.HELP

Answer
Hi Larry

I'd be happy to help.  You can send your firewall log to me at numbersix6@yahoo.com.  Please also send a HijackThis log so that I can determine if you have malware which is communicating with other computers.  If you do not have HJT, please follow the instructions below:

Please download TrendMicro HijackThis! from the following link:
http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en-US/threat_analytics/HJTInstall.exe
* Save HJTInstall.exe to your desktop.
* Doubleclick on the HJTInstall.exe icon on your desktop.
* By default it will install to C:\Program Files\Trend Micro\HijackThis.
* Click on Install.
* It will create a HijackThis icon on the desktop.
* Once installed, it will launch Hijackthis.
* Click on the Do a system scan and save a logfile button. It will scan and the log should open in notepad.
* You can send the log as an attachment or;
* Click on "Edit > Select All" then click on "Edit > Copy" and Paste the entire contents of the log into your email.
