It has been two days that I cannot do multitasking while teaching online. I am feeling being paranoid that my current company is controlling it. There is nothing wrong with my Internet speed. I read some articles that hackers can do this. At the back of my mind, my company is hacking my computer.
Is it possible that they can control my computer's software?

I think it is possible especially when they have software being installed in your computer for monitoring. I have a friend who works with other country online and they have a software that is installed in her computer for monitoring purposes

Yes
It is possible.
You know your computer best
Ifnits not right
Something is wrong
You are right to be paranoid
Or the software has a problem

@Shavkat uninstall the browser.
Re install the.browser.
Check the software you installed and see what permissions it has
And finally ask the people who supplied it what it is supposed to do

I think usually the anti-virus can check it out. Scan your computer and then see what's going on. Sometimes if there are strange things happen and it is not easy to figure out what's wrong. The simple way is to reinstall the operating system again and all the troubles will be gone. If not, then usually it is the hardware problem.
