So i’m currently in a paranoid state right now. Earlier this morning, while I was working on my personal PC, my pointer just started moving on its own. At first I thought it was something with my mouse (maybe the sensor is dirty or something) so I blew on it. However, I noticed that it was still moving in a very human-like circular motion even without it touching any surface. Like how you would move it when you’re warming up your hand to use your PC.
I immediately pulled the mouse cord but it wouldn’t stop. Suddenly it right-clicked on its own, and I saw it was about to click on refresh when I just decided to pull the LAN cable. It was still moving for a few seconds even after the Internet connection was terminated (kept moving it to disrupt whatever the pointer was doing). Once it finally stopped, I did everything I could think of. I disconnected my webcam, cleared my browser history and saved passwords, uninstalled all the stuff I can think of that might have the virus. I did a quick scan, a full scan, and then a custom scan for each of my drives using windows defender. I uninstalled all the VPNs I had installed. I even changed the mouse I was using. I kept my PC disconnected to the Internet for atleast an hour before I decided to connect it again.
Nothing happened since then, I think my mouse was just bugging out but I still can’t get the thought that maybe someone is controlling my PC remotely. Maybe they gave up after trying to do something in my PC without success and might try again next time. I just need help or information regarding this experience.
Any advice on what I should do or look for?
my PC doesn’t have a wireless/Bluetooth driver though
