Increasing accounts being hacked

Increasing accounts being hacked

Postby Murrdoc » Sun Mar 04, 2007 7:09 pm

Hey there, got a good tip on how to prevent being hacked in world of warcraft. This is a very simple technique which would save you alot of grief and frutration. Hackers simply use a key logging programme that can identify the keys you are hitting. This can be easily downloaded and simple to use, this is why there is an increasing amount of gold theft and in some cases characters being deleted.

Basically there is a way of Beating the key logging system.

When Typing your password, deliberatly miss a character out of the password and when you have completed the code cursor back and type the missing character in. This will Scramble the sequence and save you alot of time.

Example

Murdoc12345 cursor back and add the second 'r' completing the passord Murrdoc12345 and putting them hackers in thier place.

Hope it helps :)

p.s that isnt my password haha

Or you can just run a decent spy and ad killing program, like Spybot S&D which won't only kill your vermin but immunize you to them.

someone managed to install a keylogger on my computer, and I have it all, physical firewall, software firewall, spybot, anti-virus, you name it. I still have no idea whatsoever how that got there though...

Too bad for them, I noticed a strange process name, and was able to get it off, but had to change a few passwords because of that... which means, even if you take precautions, you might still get infected... My advice, besides having all the auto-thingies on, do regular scans and change your password if anything out of the ordinary shows...

Also, don't trust the words "free" "porn" or anything the like anywhere on the internet...
