I was just on a random webcam chat site. It connect you to others randomly.
Anyway I was chatting with what I thought was a lady in Texas. The last thing
the other posted was that he was the "turkishhacker" and he had hacked my
info from my system via my turned off webcam. BUT I don't have a cam on this
system and I though that Linux was more or less hack proof. Could his guy have
done something to my system and where could I check? I'm running a normal
install of SuSE 11.2

"He" says he hacked your webcam and you don't have one? Ignore him.


Reminds me of those sites that claim to be scanning my system and find that iexplorer is contaminated with a virus... and there is no such thing in linux, so it is a fake scan, a rush to get something.


Linux is not impossible to hack, just more difficult than windows.
