Tapped? Do you think the FBI is after you or something?

Try some virus programs to find the 'tap'.

Lol what are you like an arms dealer or something

No your laptop cannot be 'tapped' without it connected to the Internet. If the federals were 'tapping' you, then they must have a valid reason to.

Lol, it seems like he's trying to find out how to do it. Besides, the feds wouldn't "tap" into your laptop at all unless you were some kind terrorist. They just come to your house with a warrant and gain possession of it or they notify you before hand.

Guys lets not veer off topic please.

To OP, you can make sure that you don't have a trojan or keylogger in your computer by following this:

But unless you have real evidence that someone is tapping your computer, we can't really help you here, and if it's the federal government than we won't help you.

I meant posting the log here and PMing one of ya'll to come take a look, lol, but a new thread down in Computer Security should do as well

cider? seriously? no. nothing beats beer, especially off the tap
