Determining if any files have been accessed remotely

Hello Forum,
Is it possible to view if any files have been accessed by a remote user?  The machine in question is a client desktop running Windows 7 ultimate and is not part of a domain.  I would like to be able to see if any files on this desktop have been
accessed remotely.
thanks

In addition to the other replies you have received, you can check if you have been hacked. From various sources, I’ve compiled this list of some things that can be checked:
1. First of all check if any rogue programs or services are running. Open a Run window (Windows Logo key+R), type msconfig and press Enter. On the Startup Tab, uncheck any entries that are unknown to you. Repeat this for the Services
Tab. If you uncheck anything restart the computer and when it restarts, put a tick in ‘Don‘t show this again‘ as you‘re effectively doing a selective start up.
2. It’s probably not relevant these days but this only takes a few seconds to check. Open
a Run window (Windows Logo key+R), type cmd and press Enter. Now type system.ini and press Enter. If under [drivers] there is an entry
user=user.drv, you may have been hacked, so restart the computer and check again. An entry of timer=timer.drv is safe.
3. Now check the net statistics:
3A. Open a Run window (Windows Logo key+R), type cmd and press Enter. Now type netstat -ano and press Enter. If ‘Established’ is in the State column, make a note of the PID and the Addresses alongside
it, as someone may be hacking you. If the IP Address begins with 192.168, you are safe as it’s part of your home network.
3B. To check if you are being hacked, open Task Manager by
hitting Ctrl+Shift+Esc. Go to the Processes Tab > View > Select Columns and put a check in the PID box so that the column is displayed.
3C. If the PID that you noted in 3A appears and it is not a name that you recognise, right-click it and End the process. You can click the word PID at the top to sequence the numbers to make it easier to find. Restart the computer and check again.
3D. If you didn’t find the PID, restart the computer and rerun the netstat –ano command. Open Google in a browser window and type the IP Address into the search box. If it’s a suspicious site, restart the computer and check again
4. Lastly, run your ‘anti’ programs to clear up any residual files, which you should be doing on a regular basis anyway.

    In Firefox Options / Privacy be sure "Remember download history" is checked. To see all of the options on that panel, "Firefox will" must be set to "Use custom settings for history".

  • How do I check my files have been backed up on disk utilities

    My mac book pro model : a1278 from 2010 won't log in it just loads with a grey screen with the apple logo and the buffering symbol, I have tried the safe boot mode and that doesn't work. I have also repaired the hard drive on disk utility and that hasn't solved the problem either. I have backed up my files onto a USB using disk utilities. I am wondering how to check that all the files have been backed up before I do a clean installation of Mac OS X Lion as I don't want to lose my files. Any suggestions ?

    you can sync your contacts and things under your own itunes and your wife can have her own... or both in one as long as you have it synced in the same computer they will be there
    if you name ur phones its easier to tell which is which
    my husband kids and i all have our names and then iphone next to it and it creates a different backup for each and then we update and we restore from there it lets you choose which backup you want...
    hope it helps!!

  • Doc files have been renamed to unknown file format .bhdiraa

    Hey All,
    Randomly doc extensions files are being renamed to doc.bhdiraa .It looks like files have been encrypted.
    Files are shared on the server and served by 100s of users (From WAN and LAN end).We did scan server with Many AVs
    and with virustotal.com
    but couldn't find any malware. we do have "not so updated" backups. Does anyone have any solution on recovering data?
    immediate reply will be appreciable
    Thanks in advance.

    You might also try renaming the extensions to docx or zip (just in case they're docx file and not just doc files) and seeing whether you can open them with Word or Windows.
    If that doesn't work, you might need to use some commercial software like Malwarebytes (https://www.malwarebytes.org/) for recovery. There is also a free version you could try.
    Cheers

  • SQLPLUS: How to verify that java class file have been loaded

  • It seems that many (if not all) of my files have been replaced by older versions. I kind find the multiple versions (listed in the Search as in the same dir) and restore them but this is strange. There is no chance that another user here has done a restor

    It seems that many (if not all) of my files have been replaced by older versions. I can find the multiple version including the most recent version using the Search, however, they show up in the same directory even though Finder only shows a single copy. I am able to save and then overwrite in order to restore but this is strange. There is no chance that another user here has done any sort of system restore action (at least intentionally).

    I can find the multiple version including the most recent version using the Search, however, they show up in the same directory even though Finder only shows a single copy.
    In a OS Extended (HFS) file system there is no way you can have two files with identical names in the same directory.
    Of course who knows what spotlight is thinking of most of the time when it does its stupid searches (get Find any File instead) and lists its results?  Are you sure it is listing the same directory or do you have a backup and it is finding it there and you aren't noticing it is two different volumes?
    You could also try reindixing the volume.  Add it to the Spotlight system preferences Privacy and then remove it.

  • The maximum number of files have been indexed

    Hi
    I've just tried using Edge Code with a large project. Upon attempting to use Quick Edit on a class name I got the following error: "Error indexing files. The maximum number of files have been indexed. Actions that look up files in the index may function incorrectly."
    After closing the pop-up window, the Quick Editor fails to work.
    Are there any plans to increase the size of the index limit? I'm very impressed with the software so far, but not being able to use the quick edit function defeats the purpose of using Edge Code.
    Cheers,
    Roberto

    Each device can only set up 3 iCloud accounts.  After that, all you can do is re-use one of the accounts that has already been set up on this device, or set up a new account on a different device if you have one.

  • To save room on my hard drive, once (fcp1).dv files have been created, can I delete the original .dv files?

    I've got a lot of what seems to be redundant media files on my hard drive, but I'm not sure how necessary all these files really are.  To save room, once (fcp1).dv files have been created, can I delete the original .dv files?

    This is FCP X related.  I haven't used Final Cut Studio.  Regardless, for some reason I have many clips twice.  The only difference is in the name, not in the kind or size of the clip.  For instance, I've got a "clip-2008 09:25:11.dv" and a "clip-2008 09:25:11(fcp1).dv". 
    I don't know how that clip was created, but all my clips have been duplicated that way.  Now it may be that I ingested them in iMovie and then used those clips in FCP X - or perhaps when FCP X says this new version "needs to convert your clips".  But the point is that half my media space is taken up by these duplicate files, and I would like to remove one or the other of those duplicates.
    Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    As of two days ago, I am unable to access www.rolexforums.com
    Now, this website ONLY (to my knowledge) is being blocked by the wireless router.  No one has made any changes to the settings.  I have reset the router back to factory specs, and upgraded to the latest firmware.  I have reset everything multiple times, and looked to see if somehow that site was added to my blocked list, which was never set up, and remains empty. That whole section has always been disabled and remains disabled.  I worked with Cisco Tech Support and they could not resolve the issue.

    Then I stopped it.....
    I have been accessing this site for months with this wireless router and all the same computers without any issues.  When I try now, I get:
    Safari can’t open the page.
    Safari can’t open the page “http://www.rolexforums.com/” because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection. This sometimes occurs when the server is busy. Wait for a few minutes, and then try again.
    When I try with a PC laptop and the PC that is directly cabled to the WRT320N I get the windows equivalent message.
    When I connect any computer directly to the cable modem, I have no connectivity problems....
    Has anyone else ever experienced such an issue, and if so, how was it resolved, if it was resolved.
    Thank you!

    In the router lower the MTU to 1365, save settings and try again.

    Hi David,
    Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
    Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

  • CC files have been attacked by encryption virus.  How do I delete?

    My creative cloud files have been encrypted and I have received a ransom note.  I want to delete these files before the virus gets into my computer.  So far the only files affected are the cloud files that have not been synced to my computer.  How can I get rid of them and how was someone able to access the cloud files and attach a virus?  I am very concerned about security at this point.  I use CC at work and cannot take the risk of cloud files carrying a virus to my companies servers, that would be too devestating.

  • Collection may have been accessed after transaction exception ?

    I am using Forte for Java EE to create 2 CMP Entity
    Beans : Employee and Paycheck. I access the Employee
    Entity bean from servlet and then look up the associated Paycheck objects as shown below:
    InitialContext initial = new InitialContext();
    Object objref =
    initial.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/employee");
    EmployeeLocalHome ref = (EmployeeLocalHome) objref;
    if ( ref == null)
    System.err.println("EmployeeLocalHome not found !");
    EmployeeLocal emp = ref.findByPrimaryKey(new Integer(empid));
    if ( emp == null)
    System.err.println("Find failed..EmployeeLocal not found ! ");
    Iterator paychecks = emp.getPaycheck().iterator()
    At this point I get the exception:
    java.lang.IllegalStateException: Collection may have been accessed after transaction completion.
    at com.sun.ejb.persistence.PMSet.iterator(PMSet.java:72)
    at payroll.paycheck.LoginViewBean.handleSubmitRequest(LoginViewBean.java:218)
    Any pointers on where i am going wrong ?

    I have figured out what the problem is.  I was running an old version of SAP GUI.  Creating the GP with SAP Transaction defaults to GuiType=WinGui instead of WebGui.
