When I enter into IRC, some people whom I suspect they are real hackers know everything about my location, the pages I visit and my Internet activity (the things I download, etc). I can GUARANTEE that the only thing I do is entering into the server where IRC channels are.
These are my theories so-far:
1st) When entering into those servers, one is literally entering into a monitored PC which makes a registry of the PCs who enter and the date time when they did; the entrance to those servers is hacked with some man-in-the-middle software to monitoriing all the activity; this MitM was installed by any of these people.
2nd) When I enter there, this people just open a conversation chat by saying something like "Hi!", or "Hello"; once the message has been sent, they can -with any software I don't know- scan the IP of the destination server (my PC in this case) and thus, port scanning and geolocating the IP; once this has been done, they can connect both PCs with a RAT program and finally, remote viewing all my activity.
>Inb4 you're paranoid / you told them your data first
If you're about to say this, please do me a favor and literally rot in Hell forever. I already told that I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING, AND IT'S VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE GUESSING AND MATCHING VARIOUS IPS COMPLETELY SEPARATED IN TIME RELATED TO USERS THAT TOLD NOTHING TO ANYONE.
They guessed my exact location without saying it; they literally counted all the webpages I was visiting at the moment and days before.
Fuck, they even told me the anime I was watching.
If you still believe this is pure casualty and coincidence, I truly believe this is not Sup Forums but a pure sack of bollocks.

What OS are you using?
Jordan Barnes
well, it seems like you've been hacked
Nicholas Clark
P.D.: I guarantee that my firewalls are on, I didn't install anything.
John Barnes
what's the irc's your going into?
Anthony Ward
Windows 7
mIRC through webchat
Jayden Kelly
Depending on the irc network your IP is easily visible
Anthony Stewart
im asking what chats you're actually going to though. also this.
Robert Campbell
>using an obsolete OS that barely gets a few security updates once a month if microsoft feels like it
did you even touch the control panel after install to disable obvious security holes like remote desktop viewing?
William Lee
I could literally social you into believing I know that. I would still avoid irc on your main box, if your going to be exploring channels with people like that. Stick to work and private channels.
Aaron Diaz
>Windows 7 Instal Sup Forumsentoo, M$ OS is a joke when it's about security.
Parker Powell
IRC-Hispano; there, I enter into very general channels where lots of -I guess- people are already.
I didn't know about it, what should I do? But more important: even if these vulnerabilities where enabled, how could these people touch them to gain control?
Joseph Collins
do you even use a firewall (windows firewall doesn't count)? when's the last time you did a virus scan since you're clearly infected with actual spyware?
Brandon Russell
Fucking faggot they just guessed maybe 4 pages and where right. Boohoo anime blurp - I guess they just said one of the new ones and you faggot just watch every anime out there anyways. Your IP is visible and that is it. Clearly they can tell your location with it just by typing it into google, which also shows how less you really know. Since you are not telling us which irc you where on, this story is fake bullshit out of your ass. Sup Forums is a board for high intelligent individuals discussing topics about technolo/g/y and who am I even trolling here..... Obligatory smiley to fuck with the rest that aren't annoyed yet: v.v
Hudson Parker
>windows firewall doesn't count It works when properly configured.
Cooper Cox
Get fucked you retarded weeb
Hudson Foster
>IRC-Hispano fucking spics
Lucas Carter
>I guess
You guess wrong. I don't watch anime everyday like you guess wrongly. Dude, just get into the facts and stop guessing.
Austin Cooper
no it doesn't. any program that wants to bypass it will simply add a firewall exception during install, rendering it useless. even firefox and nvidia drivers do this.
>what should I do? wipe harddrive, hope that none of your firmware is infected (it probably is), and install linux you sub-90 IQ weeaboo spic faggot.

Ayden Rivera
You watch naruto. Hacked you with emacs.
Josiah Torres
>no it doesn't. any program that wants to bypass it will simply add a firewall exception during install, rendering it useless. even firefox and nvidia drivers do this. Ho you're talking about that. Yes it's fucking annoying. But once you cleared the rules it's OK. No I don't defend this, I use GNU/Linux everyday, but when configured and monitored, Windows firewall is OK.
Asher Wright
OP did you buy any computer hardware or accessories used from some filthy mexican shop? the hardware itself could be infected with malware. or you could've just installed malware from some shitty spanish website or torrent.

>can the IP of the destination server (my PC in this case) and thus, port scanning and geolocating the IP; once this has been done, they can connect both PCs with a RAT program and finally, remote viewing all my activity.
But their portscan would have to reveal a vulnerability for this to be the case. Access the same channel from a loonux live USB and see if they can do the same thing again. They're using mysterious mestizo shamanism to remote view you if they can, and you'll have to ask /x/ for help.
Lincoln Edwards
>mestizo shamanism Vegetalismo is a term used to refer to a practice of mestizo shamanism in the Peruvian Amazon in which the shamans – known as vegetalistas – gain their knowledge and power to cure from the vegetables, or plants of the region. Many receive their knowledge from ingesting the hallucinogenic, emetic brew ayahuasca.

David Thomas
this, OP! Access it with a live Ubuntu after having done this from terminal:
Hey shitty brazi who keeps posting about how hacked you are, you are not stop doing meth meth is bad for your teeth and your overall health
Owen Ward
Also be aware that there are CTCP commands, which can reveal your location (CTCP TIME - look on timezones map) and OS (CTCP VERSION) without even looking at your IP.
may the precious bald eagle bless you and your family as america is made great again
Luke Rivera
I wish I could literally shit down your neck in real life
Adam Kelly
The server and channel not the client
Carter Green
seriously stay off the meth its clouding your perception
Jeremiah Wilson
>Windows 7 >only 7.5 years old >"obsolete"
When XP was 7.5 years old, it had like 70% market share, would you call that "obsolete" too?

Jaxson Jenkins
weird way to reply to the written proof showing how ignorant you are, Cletus
Dylan Turner
>Your IP is visible and that is it how to prevent this how to appear in channels as just rather than no wonder irc channels are full of skids if the premise is that everyone is handed everyone's ip on a plate
David Phillips
as a client you can't change this just use proxy or VPN to hide your real IP
Noah Rivera
There's your problem.
Switch to GNU/Linux
Sebastian Walker
Wots really gonna blow your mind is when you find out Sup Forums records your IP address and traffic while visiting, making it possible for the same shit happening here that happened there.
