If you see it there, right click on it and turn it of (or exit). In order to tell if TeamViewer is running actively on your computer you will typically see an icon (like in the image above) in the system tray of your computer (that’s the area usually located near the time and date). So, if you have TeamViewer installed on your computer (see the image above for what to look for), make sure that it is not running. Often times they would also place password revealing software on the remote computer and download the entire list of saved browser passwords on the computer, often times opening up bank accounts, investment accounts and other personal accounts. What happened next is even worse! Once in the remote computer, the “hacker” then accesses online shopping website and makes purchases using saved password information in the user’s browsers. Ultimately TeamViewer accounts were broken into and the remote “hacker” was then able to access all of the TeamViewer connected devices and remote control them. TeamViewer, used by many remote support companies ( except United PC), was compromised. It seems that sometime in the past couple of months a popular remote control software was compromised.
