[olug] OT: Local PC Forensics Experts

[T. J. Brumfield]

Hacked in what sense? That they have some form of malware?

Or hacked like a jealous ex accessed their computer without permission to
snoop?

The former is easy to determine with virus/malware scans, or just checking
running processes and looking for anything suspect. The later is harder to
determine, unless the PC was accessed with a Windows login event during
hours the owner was at work or something like that.
