First let me apologize for skipping the steps before posting here. I am posting this from a new phone. Factory resetting my computer didn't work so I figured a Farbar scan wouldn't help. If it's absolutely necessary I will try it in safe mode. In case spyware doesn't count as malware may you please suggest where I can ask for assistance. Thanks
My situation is weird so bear with me. It's a Windows 10 Asus laptop. I know the spyware still on there because my stalkers continue to harass me. Their timing is so precise it makes me think it's something on my machine. The following are things I have tried:
-replacing hard drives
-avoid usb flash drives and usb connections altogether except one for the mouse
-avoid restoring backup files
-avoid weird links or downloads
-updated Windows and malware scan
-checked the location where I use my laptop for hidden cameras (my stalkers live with me)
- physically secure my laptop so no one can get to it
-use a vpn 24/7
-avoid sites where my credentials could've been compromised
I haven't completely ruled out my stalkers constantly reinfecting my computer. We all share the home network (I am not in control of the modem router, they are) but the vpn should still hide my activity right? Anyway like I said before my hunch is it's more than just network sniffing.
I don't know what else to do besides buy a new computer. Figured I would ask here to see what can be done about the spy/malware, keylogger, backdoor or whatever the hell is on my computer. My amateur guess is that it was installed on some component that is read/written to. My stalkers have professional experience in computers, if that matters at all. There was a moment some time ago where one of them had a few hours of complete access to my computer so I'm guessing that was when the infection was contracted.
