I am under the belief that I certainly have some sort of remote software virus on my Mac, as the mouse keeps moving on its own, I swear I saw something type itself the other day, I swear to god!
I have used two different Virus sweepers and found nothing, Virus Barrier 5 & MacScan, I think I have Keylogging software & certainly remote control software, I suspect an Ex Housemate of doing it, Yet when I perform scans with both mentioned above they find nothing, I have tried looking in Terminal for active programs, but in all honesty have no idea what I'm looking for, Help please, ASAP

Oh, I'm running OS X 10.5.8

Thanks

I switched off sharing, live with my computer illeterate parents and younger brother now.
I don't own anything like an iphone or anything, I had sharing on to share songs with my little Bro's X-box, but that's it

If I was to

If I was to post a result of my Command Terminal, would you be able to spot the program, if there was one, anyone?

Thank you
