Hey /r9k/. Did I get hacked? My internet conection got bad for some minutes.I checked task manager for unknown processes but I didn't find anything suspicious. (except SearchProtocolHost.exe but It was located in a sys32 folder so it is afe) After restarting my PC twice,everything got back to normal.What should I do? I am scared shitless,my life is shit already and this will make it shittier.
>pic related found it on my hardrive
That happens, you dumbfuck. Your connection fluctuates.
Download AVG or Avira
Download MBAM
Run both
Install program that allows you to see your down and upload speed
Monitor that for any abnormal activity

I am well aware of that.But it doesn't explain why I found the pic on hardrive.I didn't save it.
>>24379052
Don't listen to this guy, those programs are free because they're shit. If you want your computer to be safe you need to purchase an anti virus software like Norton or McAfee.
Good luck OP.

I'm a poorfag.But thanks.

You probably accidentally saved it you numbnut.

He's trolling you but don't worry. The best way to not get viruses is to not be a retard.

Malwarebites found PUP.Optional.GlobalUpdate.
Any more advices?
>nobody ITT has noticed that the OP pic has a 4chan file name
Haha yeah I'm sure you just found that on your hard drive, totally didn't save it yesterday based on the digits
>>24379164
Even If I accidentally saved it. It would go to my F: disk not my D:

I'm not trolling or shit like that.I found it with the that name.That's all.
>>24379086
AVG is better than both of those and doesn't slow your machine down
>>24379000
noice digits you got there mate
>>24379000
Ok.presumably I didn't get hacked but :
1.Slowed down internet connection
2.PUP.Optional.GlobalUpdate
3.Unknown pic saved on my disk.
All this happening can't be just a coincedence.
>>24379303
Also just checked downloade files. That pic isn't in the log.
>>24379303
PUP is potentially unwanted program.
Internet is typically slow depending on time of day.
A hacker won't likely put a photo on your box.

You read everything,right? Even if it was myself who saved the pic it would be shown in the Chrome's download section.I don't use Incognito mode.I find it wierd myself,the pic could be just a way for the hacker to fuck with me something like "I saw everything".
I slept for a hour.That could be the time he was active but that would mean that he monitored my moves,and that would be picked up by my antivirus(I think).
Just to add more info.The pic was created at 19:05 right when the internet connection got bad.So I am pretty sure that someone got it in.It could be possible that he could've searched through my personal info (passwords etc.) but I don't have anything valuable.I didn't lose files and I didn't find newly installed programs.This case remains unsolved for now.You are free to assume that I saved the file on accident while being sleep drunk. (I found out that if you drag and drop a pic from 4chan it won't be saved in the download history).That could be the real cause.
Anyways.Thank you,anons for trying to help.

That's what happens when you use Windows.
Why the hell is nobody checking OP's trips???
>>24379000

>>24379000

He should also replace each and every electrical component in his computer.
Better safe than sorry, right?
