Was I Hacked?

[TheKiler]

I opened up my hard drive and I found this file:

hacked.txt

I opened it and it said

Pwned by your local hacking group.

Each folder was spammed with that file with variations of 01 to 100.

I did notice intense performance drop and dramatic speed decrease in my DSL modem the day before. Was I hacked?

i dont think anyone would bother creating that many files sounds like you caught a virus or a worm written by these people. either way i would look into getting a decent antivirus.

I had NOD32 and Panda both on guard.. That's a bit strange.

probably spyware...try running spysweeper.

what is the point of running two antiviruses?

[4play]

not really if its been written by a relavitely unknown group they will design it not to be picked up by anitviruses. just submit it to nod or panda and see what they say.

[TheKiler]

Submitted.

I have spyware blaster and ran spybot, ad-aware, and spysweeper. THey all found nothing.

NOD32 said your system is clean. Check your your firewall logs.

Firewall log (zone alarm with router)

-program access check: admuncher
-repeat program: myie2
-repeat program: firefox
-blocked program msn messenger

Nothing else.. weird.
