Hi -

The first 2 IP's 127.0.0.1 are just your own Modem address and not an outside number

Both the other numbers are related to

67.195.186.81 server location:

Sunnyvale in United States

98.138.5.227

Country: United States

Region: California

City: Sunnyvale

Postal Code: 94089

ISP: "Yahoo!"

Niether of them seem to be odd in any way :)

Nothing suspect in those numbers at all -

Regards -

I am being paranoid but just to confirm. Help me out with two more things. One is that i deleted all my yahoo conversation and when i logged back in, they were back again. Why is that happening? Also I am recieving random requests from people for example: tabitha.kynardzuge and the only thing thats on the request is the following address [fade ffffffmLEuc0f HlOWj qh eVr[

hxxp://S3XYB00K.INFOm?33qj 8w0u9 y4 nake iz5goh which i could not find any info on the internet regarding it. Ur help is appreciated

The messages are typical spam, and typical "invite spam". The data you mentioned re-appearing, is because it is stored on the providers servers, not your machine, so will re-appear every time you login.

If you're worried about people accessing your webcam, the easiest thing to do, is disable the webcam. to access the webcam, they'd need a RAT/trojan on your machine, this couldn't be done directly via Yahoo IM. To prevent this, the obvious caveats of not clicking on random links, not opening attachments, and restricting what your browser can and can not do, applies (alongside of course, keeping Flash/Java/Windows and other third party software, up to date).

Thanks again buddy. And one last thing, I also have another ip address im not sure about 87.248.105.221. I checked google but not sure what it is?

Sorry for the delay. The IP belongs to Yahoo, and houses a myriad of their sites.

If you think you are infected, here are the steps needed to get your computer cleaned....

Please read the following so that you can begin the cleaning process:

Replying to your own posts changes the post count and helpers are looking for topics with zero replies.

If you reply to your own post helpers may think that you're already being helped and thus overlook your post.
