Not sure if I am posting this in the right place, or if I can word it right, but I need advice or simply an eplaination on something. Several mths ago,I was hacked, and this person deleted my winfiles. I am RATHER pc illiterate,so did not feel the effects of that for sometime, I just thought it was my pc playing up. On my pc at the time, I had a particular file, with rather personal information in it, and the person who gained access to my pc, now has that file. He had said to me sometime after, in a conversation we had, something about 'net bios' and that he could see and retrieve anything from my pc at the time. Is this possible?? Is it possible for someone to gain access to your pc, retieve personal files etc..and then save it to thier own pc?? This is my first time using this forum, and if I have put this question in the wrong place, or something, my appologies. Any help would be greatly appreciated in explaining this to me, as I'm unbeknowns to it all. Thanks   BusyDisable Netbios.
