Now that would freak the hell out of me!

Ditto on the Trend Micro. Panda Software has a free one that works really good too. It's also got heuristic capabilities. http://www.pandasoftware.com

I remember when I worked at the computer place, we would install a remote access program on peoples laptop when they weren't there :) It was sooooo funny watching the look on their face, when we would take control of their mouse, and move it off an icon when they were trying to click on it.

They had no idea what was going on

If I was doing that to someone else, I'd be rolling on the ground laughing too :)

I sent him home with the checklist. He said on his router there are 5lights or something, and the fifth one, which the guy told him was "PC Activity" I believe, is orange. Does that sound familiar to anyone?

Thanks again guys for the input
