[QUOTE="technologist, post: 181768, member: 4134"] The only way to keep your system secure is through prevention. You can't try to "log" or "monitor" a hacker, because if your computer has been hacked, whoever did it can just disable your logging software. If I'm a hacker, and I want to hack your machine, the first thing I do is install a rootkit. I'd have almost as much control over your computer as you would. If you believe your computer has already been compromised, then the safest thing to do is to re-install the Mac OS from scratch, and then keep them from getting back in. In the future, set a good password, turn on your firewall, and use WPA encryption on your WiFi network. Lock your door, and log out whenever you leave your computer. [/QUOTE]
