edited July 2012 in Moe's Stupid Technology Tavern
i went into our router today and there is a computer that i have never seen that has only utorrent and a program called toredo which seems to be something to tunnel through stuff I'm not quite sure. I'm on the phone with verizon but the wait is long. am i right in thinking this computer is using toredo to get into our network?

    First obvious question: is your network secured?

    Toredo is a tunneling interface.

    More information is required.

    Do you have an unsecured wireless LAN situation? Is the firewall enabled on your router? Does your router have the default admin password unchanged?

    utorrent and toredo is a strange combination of things to activate assume you have been hacked - perhaps they're using your bandwidth to seed, but even then it's a little weird.

    Do you have a younger brother? Cousins? Anything like that?
