Hi guys.
I am not really that much of a technie so sorry if i missed imoortsmt points in protecting myself.
I have uvnc and had a good password set (admin properties is where I placed the pw - don’t know if there is another location. . Apparently, I got hacked and I don’t know how!
They were accessing my Amazon and PAYPAL and used my funds...
Firewall is turned off and virus protection is off so I can access viewer if I need to from my phone or another pc.
Can I add another layer of password? Is there such thing or possibly only allow my phone or specific computer to view this computer that got hacked. I had to close port for now cause I’m terrified of not being able to protect it properly.
Hope you can guys could advise me.

Re: How to not get hacked
Make sure you select a plugin
![Image](https://www.uvnc.eu/download/1223/en1.jpg)
Press config and add a long password (passphrase)

Alternative you can create a key, after creation you need to cop the viewer key to the same folder as vncviewer.exe

Start the Viewer with encryption enabled

Re: How to not get hacked
Your post shows SecureVNC plugin 2.4.0.0, but the SecureVNC site only has 2.3 (from 2010). Where can we get the newer version?
