Well recently I was trying to log into my email, and my password was declined for almost every one of them. And when i tried to reset the password all of the "read the character" things, where all of the letters are scrambled, all of the letters were stuck on caps lock when caps lock on my keyboard wasn;t even on. And whn i tried to sign into xbox.com it would not let me until the 7th try. I don't really know what is wrong with my computer or if i'm just imagining it? Can someone please help me? the only thing that would lead me to beilive someone is "in my system" is this message on terminal [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] Oh and the stuff underlined in red is what i am concerned about. the green is me.

First, check to make sure you have hidden files enabled;
1.Close all programs so that you are at your desktop.
2.Click on the Start button. This is the small round button with the Windows flag in the lower left corner.
3.Click on the Control Panel menu option.
4.When the control panel opens click on the Appearance and Personalization link.
5.Under the Folder Options category, click on Show Hidden Files or Folders.
6.Under the Hidden files and folders section select the radio button labeled Show hidden files, folders, or drives.
7.Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide extensions for known file types.
8.Remove the checkmark from the checkbox labeled Hide protected operating system files (Recommended).
9.Press the Apply button and then the OK button..
10.Now Windows 7 is configured to show all hidden files.
When you've finished that; see what is open on startup. If there's somthing open that shouldn't be there, then voila

kennybanks-pc = Computer name - Did you buy it 2nd hand? You can change it by: System Preferences > Sharing > Computer Name

It is said to be impossible to put a keylogger virus on a Mac. A keylogger program? Yes. But a virus? No. And if you find this SOOOOO hard to believe. It's called Google. USE IT.
