Why were you in her home if she's your ex?
As for securing your network. Change the passphrase on your router and change the password on your email.
Do a virus scan and malware scan.

Has she installed stealth software on your PC? It's almost undetectable. Such software can copy emails to her, send regular screenshots, and give her a keystroke history.

I'm therefore assuming she has also read your post..

Change the Router Password or Reset the IP Address, or even get a new Router.

Change the Router Password or Reset the IP Address, or even get a new Router.

Excellent advice.

Then scan your computer with at least three different programs, such as Malwarebytes, Microsoft Security Essentials (there is a new, free, standalone version which runs from a disc), and at least one other program. I'd throw in a rootkit detector for good measure.

I'd also gather some evidence (along with what you already have) and be prepared to confront her with it. Don't make any specific threats, just point out that what is happening is against the law and you are considering contacting the authorities. A strong hint that if she is involved it would be way more trouble than harassing an ex-boyfriend is worth ought to end the problem.

I'd do the other things first, and only resort to the last if you are absolutely sure that the problem hasn't gone away after the router changes and malware scans.

Also check to see if there are no remote connection apps like LogMeIn, TeamViewer, etc.

Change IP Address

Or if you have a dynamic IP which mine is it changes everytime you reset your router (turn off/on):

Check your IP before resetting and after from here to see if it changes:
What Is My IP Address - Shows Your IP Address

Change your Router password settings by typing something like 192.168.0.1 in the address bar.

To check for Remote app's, download CCleaner. Click the Uninstall Tab and show a screenshot of all programs from CCleaner's uninstall.

To just be safe. I would set UAC to max:

Always Notify.

Change your Windows Password and Account Passwords.

Have a real time Anti-Virus with Malwarebytes and MSE.

 

[comptourist]

infinite..got cc..will check now...uac is max...another anti virus along with mse.... thinkin may be too late after seeing that hack cd, lastnite

Please post a screenshot to it here or manually list each program.

i would also advices to open up services and disable remote registry so they cant edit your registry over the network, i have it disable for security reasons

Do this by typeing services in the search bar in the windows taskbar and click enter or type run then click on it and then type services and it should pop up

@comptourist
Try this:

Start > right-click My Computer > click on Remote Settings (left side) > select the Remote tab > Uncheck the "Allow Remote assistance" option > Select the "Don't allow remote connections to this computer" > Apply > OK

No more accessing your computer!

As for your router:

1. Change the router settings login info. : username and password
2. Secure your wireless connection with a WPA/WPA2 key

I could change my registry from run computer to another from TeamViewer with that Disabled. Maybe because they're on the same network.

Nice points there guys

infinite- thanks will tomorrow...is new router a must?

No, unless cleaning your OS and restoring, Etc and changing your Router settings didn't work.
