| | Re: Event Viewer the event viewer might not show that information... its mostly for errors in programs notifications about services etc... if you are afraid such a thing is happening you should download linux that is far more secure than vista, or if you want windows you should run some antispyware programs like "spybot search and destroy" (google it) and adaware (google it). Also install a very good firewall OR take a look at the ADVANCED WINDOWS FIREWALL that you will find in your CONTROL PANEL> ADMINISTRATIVE TOOLS (on the bottom see the icon that says Windows Firewall with Advanced security) --- leapfrog vista... waiting for windows7, that will actuallu be vista that just gone out of beta quality.

| | Re: Event Viewer Do you mean "Remote Desktop" access (like here: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/0...windows-vista/ ) or do you mean someone installing and executing harmful programs (malware) on your machine via Internet?
