Webcams

Are hackers using your webcam to watch you?

It’s surprisingly easy to hack a webcam.

How would you feel if you discovered someone was spying on you through your webcam?

One simple solution is to stick a post-it note over your webcam when you are not using it.

"Thank you so much for restoring health to our very sick computer. You showed a great deal of patience with both me and the computer which had been seriously infeted with a Trojan and which I had left hoping that the problem would solve its self. My children who are studying for GCSEs and A levels desperately needed a fully functioning computer and eventually it just ground to a halt. When I did got round to calling you, you attended promptly and dealt with the problem in a very logical way. You explained to me what you were doing and you gave me good advice on how to prevent such problems occurring in the future. I would definitely recommend you to friends or colleagues for your expert service and advice.
Thank you once again.
BW"
