So i have a fairly fresh install of Windows 10 - i installed about a month ago. I keep my computer logged in and running 24/7.
I have a small network with an old domain controller running Windows Server 2000 (yes that's correct).
Every morning I unlock my windows 10 PC to start using it. This morning however, when i tried to unlock it, it said that there was another user already logged in! And it was the Administrator account, which I never use. And if i remember right it was the domain Administrator, not the local Administrator. So i freaked out and told it to go ahead and log that user out and log me in (as my usual user).
I'm kind of freaking out here because this sounds like bad news and maybe i was hacked.
Another strange thing is that i have a Windows 8.1 virtual machine running on this same PC, and when i tried unlocking it, the same thing happened - it said there was another user already logged in, and it wad the Administrator account.
Was I hacked? I'm freaking out a bit here.
I don't use an email client, just gmail and i haven't clicked on anything weird lately. The built in Windows 10 antivirus and firewall are enabled and running. This just doesn't make sense.
Any tips, hints, info would be great if you've got them.
Thank you!
