Dell Hacked My Computer
I own a Dell desktop and laptop. The Dell Corporation hacked my laptop and reconfigured Internet Explorer to be their own. The symptom that revealed this was that my wireless board started failing. I managed to stabilize the connection trying more things that I really know how to do. Does anyone know how to undo the damage. Apparently they tried to do the same thing to my desktop. Suddenly, my wireless card was wiped out - nothing recognizes it. Also, my graphics card dual monitor mode became impossible to use - the flat panel screen and tv both appear as crt terminals. Tech support verified that the wireless card was bad - wouldn't talk to me about the graphics card. The next level tech was supposed to call, but never has and likely never will. Has anyone ever written to the CEO about taking back a lemon and their hacking. Thanks

This "Hacking" you refer to by Dell is something I'd like more details about.Exactly how to you know that Dell is attacking your system? It sounds like you might have a spyware or virus issue, but I've never heard of Dell hacking a system.How about some details here? I've all ears (or eyes) :smileyvery-happy:

#IWork4Dell- oh dell can hack firefox too. you better believe it. :smileyvery-happy:that was a joke. Aconfrere - why do think dell might want to "hack" your computer? it sounds like your assertion is that dell hacked your system with the intent of causing parts to fail.. (?) what would be the benefit of this?

Thank you for using the Dell Community Forum.
I can assure you Dell has not and will not hack into any computers.
