Have you been hacked?

The first place to check for it is this....if you are now going through a "proxy" server to get to the internet....here's how...For IE, go to Tools, then Internet Options. Click on the Connections tab and choose LAN Settings.

If the Proxy Server box is checked and it has a local IP address with a port number, then that means you’re going through a local server first before it reaches the web server. This means that any web site you visit first goes through another server running some kind of software that either blocks the address or simply logs it. 

Make sure to untick the proxy server and retick automatically detect settings to get it back to direct link....close IE and restart....
this is the FIRST step to getting on the Hack Attack!
