Hi,
Over the weekend I believe someone hacked into our system. We are a small company and the system was down this AM. I had to reset all the switches and routers for anyone to connect in. In our My Network Places is another Domain/Workgroup called xDick.Anyone know how I can get rid of it. ALso I believe I know what computer was designated as xDick. However, I cannot find any files or registry info with that name. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks IN Advance

what workgroup is the suspect machine in? Browse lists have to clear themselves over time. Shutdown all machines and restart should fix the problem once you have determined what machine is broadcasting xDick workgroup.
Sign of a hacker is usually not related to having to restart routers and switches.
