If you have any of these games install via Steam, or any recent update, each one includes the "Uplay" program. Uplay has been exposed as a Rootkit, a type of malware that allows computer access from LITERALLY ANY WEBSITE. People can now access your computer. I would recommend uninstalling the game until this is settled.
