How can you tell if I'm being hacked while I'm talking in a private chat on Yahoo Messenger?

While chatting, in a pm, the person and I are visiting. Can that person access my computer at that point?

How can you tell if I'm being hacked while I'm talking in a private chat on Yahoo Messenger?
I can't so don't worry about it!
Reply:Yes. If you send an instant message. It is possible for them to track the location and IP address of that message. Therefore in theory, they could "hack" you if you do not have any firewalls and antivirus protection in place. So if you wanna catch them, check out Symantec鈩?DeepSight鈩?Threat Management System provides actionable intelligence covering the complete threat lifecycle, from initial vulnerability to active attack. With personalized notification triggers and expert analysis, the system enables enterprises to prioritize IT resources in order to better protect critical information assets against a potential attack. Patches, countermeasures, workarounds, and additional references are also provided, reducing the hours spent searching through Web sites and emails. Optional custom reports provide the ability to trend data by time, country, industry, IP address, target ports, and other parameters. Powered by the Symantec Global Intelligence Network, the service is an authoritative source of tailored information about known and emerging vulnerabilities, threats, risks and global attack activity.
