Preventing someone from accessing your computer through Remote Access
I have recently did a System Restore on my HP Envy Notebook. After doing so I discovered a lot of programs running on my computer that I did not authorized. I also noticed a lot of programs that were running that were also hidden. I've noticed that my computer have several modules or programs set up that deals with Remote settings. Is there anyway I can remove these items?
