New connection appeared, how do I know if i've been hacked

[Sirtokalott]

I use Live Messenger and a file sent to me was blocked. I have a wireless
adapter and connect to my neighbours router (yes she gave me the access code)
and I ussualy have a wireless connection logo in the system tray. When I
started up the pc the other night I had an extra icon showing a cable
connection to another computer. I also now have a modem installed in device
manager. I think it is my neighbours computer which I am connecting to but
aint to sure as neither of us is experts. The pc is also running much slower
now. I'd love to know of anyway of identifying a deliberate attack from
someone. Here's what the modem log says.

You have multiposted this question all over these newsgroups. Most annoying
and guaranteed to *not* get you an answer. See this for why:

http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm - multiposting

As for your issue, disconnect the machine from the Internet and go through
the general malware removal steps listed here:

http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

If you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair
shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad). Please be
aware that not all local shops are skilled at removing malware and even if
they are, your computer may be so infested that Windows will need to be
clean-installed. If possible, have all your data backed up before you take
the machine into a shop.

And stop multiposting this!
