A computer connection hack?

Evergreens

I have a wifi. i think its pretty secure and everything.

but my neighbors/friends live next door and they wanna use it too so i figure hey im payin anyways.

is it possible for them to spy on me and get my passwords and stuff?

can they do it without having some spyware or virus or stuff like that installed into my computer?
lol i'd be the one that watches youtube and movies alot

but still, it always gets awkward when someone asks to use my wifi

lose-lose situation for me.

its good to know they cant hack into my computer by sharing wifi
my wifi password protected and everything

I believe I have heard of people fixing somebody's comupter from another location, but can they access it when they want and go through your mail and all your private things? What are they able to access? thanks for the info!

Answer
In order to remotely control a computer, certain software needs to be installed on it and it needs to be acting as a host. Programs like LANDesk, VNC, and Remote Desktop in XP Pro can all be used in this manner. Generally it takes a bit of setting up before your computer will accept and turn over control with a remote connection.

Unless your computer is infected.
