My little brother downloaded a trojan I don’t know how long ago, I found out when I realized my malware bytes was gone for some reason, and when I got it back, I had 36 files sent to quarantine after the first scan! He tried downloading a mod for something, he is still afraid to tell me the truth. The hackers have been sending messages on steam and instagram, but I have 2FA on all of those and I get login alerts, what’s the point if they got through all of these?? What can I do besides changing my passwords?

    1. Download and install a reputable AV that actually works, Eset, Kaspersky or Bitdefender.

    2. Change all your password from a different machine or Phone

    3. Reformat your PC

    4. Have better control over what others are doing on your PC

    2FA is easy to bypass if they can see/read your 2FA keys via what you type on screen on your PC or are logging your keystrokes. They can simply change your passwords or remain logged into your accounts on their devices.
