*computer question* how easy would it be to post my profile

[SPKrazy]

onto someone else's computer screen :shrug:

in a way that it was part of their wallpaper and it wouldn't ever go away and they had to look at it over and over and over
until it drove them to destroy their computer? :silly:

would it be hard to do? :shrug:






(weakly done copycat)

1. okay, thanks

[SPKrazy]

2. no kidding, I was just kidding

i have no idea how one would do that

:shrug:

:hug:

3. no kidding

it happened and it one of the reasons i quit my job...it was an employee who worked at the hospital. i wonder if there is something called cyber stalking cos this is ot all they did

[SPKrazy]

4. Yes there is

and cyber stalking is also illegal

hmmm, I don't know how they did what they did. You might pose that question in the computer forum.

I'd almost be worried that they had physical access to your computer, but it could be that they sent some kind of virus that made their display show up on your wallpaper

that's weird wh

I think it's cause for concern and start with the computer forum. You might even call the police and ask them if they have a computer crime unit. I'm sure it is small potatoes for them, but identity theft is not and if they were able to access your computer remotely there might be spyware logging keystrokes which might give them passwords etc.

Do you have good anti spyware software?

:hug:

5. Uh yeah cyber stalking is very real.

There's software out there that'll record every keystroke of someone's computer and a lot more. Emails, chats too.

7. do you think this person

has gotten into my computer?

or was there a simple way to do what they did? they had my personal e-mail address

[Wapsie B]

8. what did this person do at your old job?

they could've installed keylogging software on the computer you used there. Chats and emails can be captured too, depending on the software used.

9. no,

this came to my home computer....?!?!?!

[Wapsie B]

11. there are ways to do that without touching your computer

i know they can send things through email attachments. could be a very legitimate looking thing you open and voila', it automatically installs in your system and are very hard to detect. god it does sound like some kind of stalking.

[wildhorses]

12. i didn't have to open anything

i had left my computer on all night. in the morning, when i turned on my screen there was this person's profile staring at me...!?!?!

i was able to to get on the dating site and block them...

:shrug:

i tried to shrug it off but, in light of what has transpired with that job since then...
