Hello Craig,

Do you mean that someone had gained unauthorized access to your Host machine? If this is the case, you should try contacting your nearest police department and letting them know about the case so that the police can investigate this further. In this case we will be able to provide our server logs that contain the originating IP address which is stored on our servers (i.e. the information that might help law enforcement to identify whoever got the access to your computer). However, please note that the logs can be only provided if there's a direct request from the police. Here is an excerpt from our Privacy Policy:

Government and law enforcement agencies

We may also share information to (i) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request; (ii) enforce this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations hereof; (iii) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security, or technical issues; (iv) respond to your requests; or (v) protect our rights, property or safety, our users and the public. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and spam/malware prevention.

This is strictly within the law and international treaties and also conforms to our privacy policy. Please feel free to provide our contact information privacy@remoteutilities.com to the police - we will be happy to provide our assistance to the investigation.

Let us know if you have more questions.

Hello Craig,

Thank you for your message.

I will forward your request to our development team to see if they can provide any feedback on the log codes.
In addition, I’ve noticed that your log shows version 7.1.7.0 of Host - please make sure to update your Host to the most recent version 7.2.7.0 following this guide to avoid possible issues that might be caused by version mismatch/outdated version.

I’ll get back to you with an update on this shortly.

Hello Sergey,

Thank you for your message.

Yes, Peter is absolutely correct in this case - this screen usually appears when you’re connecting to Host running on the same machine as your Viewer. Please try connecting to Host located on a different machine and see if the issue persists.

Hope that helps.

Hello William,

Could you please double-check if you’re just logged in to the remote Agent (if the icon in your address book is green) or if you have a remote session running (for example, in Full Control connection mode)?

Looking forward to your reply.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

Please try adding the folder where you store and run Agent from to the exception list of any antivirus or firewall software you might have installed on your machine following one of the guides listed here.

Hello William,

Thank you for your message.

The active tab is populated when there is an active session running at the moment, i.e. it’s populated with Hosts and Viewers that are actively using RU Server. You can see more information on the RU Server’s Admin Console on this page.

Hope that helps.
