    Strange user names in my HS

    Just noticed in my HS network configuration page I have three users which I didn't put there:

    aspem10@gmail.com
    gfarbolin@gmail.com
    john@skyhost.net

    Where they come from?
    Anybody had this problem?

      I haven't seen that in mine. When was the last time you checked setup - network? When was the last time you updated? What version did you update to?

      Without knowing if/where your accounts or systems were compromised, I would start by checking all your computers for spyware/virus' infections. I would take a look at the BIOS and last changes to see if it has been compromised.

      I would take a close look at any recent changes to your firewall and either revert to last known good or factory default it if you suspect it has been compromised.

      Once you are reasonably sure your systems are clean reset passwords on all your accounts. I recommend 2 factor authentication on accounts that you tie to many systems. Email accounts that are used as usernames for other systems are a good example.

        Thank you @Kerat, I didn't check the settings since I installed HS, neither did update, it's on latest version.
        My PC security is always up-to-date too. And I didn't make any firewall changes.

        I did log a request with HS support, see what they have to say.

          I also just noticed two strange user names

          Under web/hstouch user settings I have:


          atwellbl@comcast.net

          ckanursery@gmail.com


          I will send a message to support@homeseer

            HS Support suggested to update to latest version, I checked the release log - there was a fix for an issue which was creating a new user for logging from HSTouch

              What version of HS3 are you on? If you are not on the latest, this could happen.

              Also, you can disable "auto create HSTouch users..." setting in setup under the "MyHS" section. That will prevent this from happening no matter what version of HS3 you are on.

              We are pretty sure this issue was resolved, but let me know what version HS3 you are on and if the users showed up recently. Its possible they were put there long ago if you have not checked.

                Thank you, HS support also suggested updating to the latest version. And thank you for info about "auto create HSTouch users..." setting
