They hacked into my computer and downloaded/installed an automatic webdialer to connect to "PREMIUM WEB CONTENT-ADULT" with phone number 201-553-4709. I did not authorize this action and was unaware that it was going on until the dialer kept dialing.

It was very noticable since I have a high speed cable connection and don't use a dialup. I couldn't stop it; everytime I deleted it, it popped back up and dialed again. Finally, I went into Control Panal & found the "mini-webdialer". Once I removed it, the dialing stopped.

In addition to a bill from Alyon for $29.34, my regular phone bill carried a page from USBI, the billing agency for WorldXChange, the long distance carrier used to download and dialup from Solomon Islands. The charge for that was $47.54.

You know you're dealing with (censored)when they print on their bill how the service had to have been authorized by you for it to happen. Bull! That was on the bill from Alyon. Then my call to investigate the USBI charges required me to listen to a broken-English person read the same disclaimer. These people need to be stopped.
