I'm on BT Openworld, and a windows luser, though I don't have a  permanent
IP as it's the surf anytime package so I don't think it's me messing with
Greg. I am online nearly all day though.

How could I find out if it was my machine doing the nasty stuff?

And also, how would I know if someone was trying to hack into my machine?
