I think you sent 4 btc to your change address 1PyQYiNNCD5B19UDxuTQf4x6qodk83rHy when you sent 4 btc to btc-e back in 2013. Those 4 btc change hasn't moved since. Your coins are still in your wallet, they are not showing because your blockchain is not up to date. Wait for the blockchain to download and you should see 5 btc confirmed.

Firewall Warning (NOTE This starts popping up about 1 minute after I open the utility and it starts to download the blockchain)

The coins have been sitting in this wallet unued since 2013....no activity.....I just recently decided to move them to a different computer so I need to download the latest blockchain so I could prosess a transfer. During the downloiad I got hacked.....the download never completed and I did not try to make a transfer

All I know is the balance was 5 and now its 0....if I open up the lightcoin wallet the balance is 147.....so Im reading the balance correctly. Something has changed within the wallet. The unconfimed number is 5.......SO.......are they gone.......? and how do I get the other lightcoins off of my computer without having the same thing happen to me

Is Bitcoin Core already synced with the network?

If 1PyQYiNNCD5B19UDxuTQf4x6qodk83rHy is a change address you have 5 bitcoins, but I believe if that was so you should see the address in 'Receive Coins' tab.

The transaction is confirmed since 2013...

I guess his client isn't synced completely and showing 5 BTC unconfirmed

Thanks so much for your help

At "recive Coins" it only showed one address (Below)

17SZMZY1N7ZQBR55Xn9DuSPMtmxsVgJfY4

It did not list the five bitcoins separately. The wallet previously said "Balance" 5 it now says Balance 0

Also...not sure what you mean by "Have you open/decrypt the wallet on that computer"

If you did so, your password could have been capture by a keylogger.

Your address has 1 bitcoin, last transaction out was 8 bitcoins distributed in 2 addresses:

https://blockchain.info/address/17SZMZY1N7ZQBR55Xn9DuSPMtmxsVgJfY4

Last transaction included in the block 273390 with this timestamp: 2013-12-06 13:41:25 so it is not this the correct address.

how do I locate an address?

At 'Receive Coins' you'll find your addresses.

Have you open/decrypt the wallet in that computer?

I have Bitcoin core loaded and 5 bitcoins in the Bitcoin Core wallet. Passwords kept offline. I was updating the blockchain and my computer got hacked. My balance now says 0 and unconfirmed says 5. Here are my questions

-snip-

By updating the blockchain you mean...?

As long as the wallet.dat is encrypted and the password is reasonably strong you have nothing to worry about for now. Dont use the wallet on the infected machine ofc.

1) Are my coins actually gone or can I still recover them if they are "UNconfirmed"
2) I have several hundred lightcoins and I would like to know what precautions I need to take to stop from having those stolen if I try to update the lightcoin block chain

Thanks

Keep calm, can you post one of your bitcoin address? So we can examine better the situation, thanks.

PS: you should remember that if one transaction has received at least 1 confirm it is impossible to 'chargeback' it, due the irreversibility of this technology.
