    My emails are being read and printed by someone else

    Is there any software or freeware that can tell me if there is email spyware on my PC? Someone that has access to my PC can print my Rogers email. I already have adaware, spybot and spyblaster on the PC. Unless they figured out my password how is this done? And yes I close my email after using it.

    Can you give a little more detail? e.g.:

    - Are they reading/printing new emails? Or only ones that are unread?

    - Are you accessing your email via Outlook Express? If so, have you password protected your identity? Not just the password to access your account. But password that actual identity so that you can't even see your downloaded emails unless you put in a password.

    Also, if you're using outlook express there are programs that can extract complete emails out of the (not so) encrypted .dbx files it creates. There are probably ways to read email data in other email clients as well... especially easy if they're stored in plain text data files.

    yup, using OE and have all the passwords. Am looking at this spycop http://spycop.com/products.htm. Probably printing off email that's already read. I have adaware, CWShredder, Spybot, spyblaster and Hijackthis.

    Instead of spending money needlessly download the latest version of hijackthis (if you don't already have it) and post the log in the hijackthis forum with an explanation of the problem and a link to this thread...

    Follow these instructions for hijack this...

    Any reason why these oulook express DBX files show last updated when I'm in bed? 10/08 3:51 AM

    I ran all my sypware software the day before and posted my Hijackthis and it was clean. I use OE 6 with rogers mail.

    Is this normal with these files?
