maybe a simple problem

I have a client who believes that thier win98 pc has been hacked with some
remote control software. They are pretty vague and not close buy so i cannot
look at the machine all the time. I asked them to do netstat when they think
they are being spied on but as yet they have not given me anything useful.

I think there is reason to believe them as the owner is involed in a hostile
boardroom take over of his company by some other entities, whilst this is
legal, they have used other underhand methods against my customer before and
they are trying to force him to sign over the business to them a little too
swiftly.

this all started when his wife was suing the pc, and a telescop came on the
screen and then disapeared, since then the machine crashes, documents
pertaing to the business have  gone missing etc, any clues to what this
telescope could be?

yours

andrew
