Thanks for all the feedback so far.
No one at all has had physical access to my computer.
I upgraded last night (from snow leopard) from a copy of lion downloaded from the app store on my mac
, the upgrade didn't complete entirely it got down to "less than a minute remaining" and stayed there for around 2 hours so I reset the mac. When I finished reseting the copy of lion loaded (so i guess it finished the install).
I had backed up my old system using time machine on an external drive just incase I lost them in the upgrade.
I created a new user in the hopes of replacing a login using migration with my old back up copy which is still on the main hard drive just not part of the same login.
When I logged out of the login I created during the lion install and into the new one I created for the migration there was a message below the two login icons saying "welcome plebb".
Plebb has no significance to me whatso ever.
I wondering if this is a real security concern for my system.
I have a copy little snitch, and I'm currently running a trial of virus barrierx6 after a full scan it didn't detect anything.
I'm wondering if I have been hacked and where to go from here to insure I do have a secure system.
