lots more info is needed... start with OS version? are your patches up to
date? how you are connected to the internet? what type of firewall you
have in place? what type of virus scanner you are running? and what do you
mean by 'i have had my own password changed'? what 'services folder' and
how have you lost permissions??
for now, unplug the machine from the internet. and lock the room it is in
when you aren't there... physical security is the only sure way to prevent
intruders.

only I can make changes. I have open the services folder to find out that
hackers have changed things to the point that I have lost access to many
permissions. Is there a "One" setting that will not allow anyone but me to
change the settings and permissiions?
