Beware Of Key Loggers

as far as i know some keyloggers can also detect what you have on your clipboard and even take screenshots

Excellent work Sob. Well done and +rep :-)

Just to clarify: Someone sending a keylogger hidden in an executable file that the recipient stupidly accepts and launches, is *not* considered "hacking". If a script-kiddie downloads a keylogger on the 'net and sends it to you, and you're stupid enough to accept & open it, it's stupidity, not hacking. The same goes for someone tricking you into providing your login credentials, then logging into your mail/computer/game account. That's stupidity again, not hacking.

soc mates avi got haxed.. thru keylogger i guess... we havent confirmed that yet but probly the only reason.. the most annoying thing was that MA couldnt tell him that with who had his avi made the trades with... if they record everything why cant they simply check that out.. and ban the player or even give U the info who was the hacker

we tracked one of his BPs one reseller was selling it on auction.. probly he hacked the whole ava.. or he just simply bought it from the hacker..

but MA aint willing to help you anyway to find out the criminals.. this game seem to be for Hackers, Scammers, Cheaters and Sweaters

That's not hacking. If I were to decompile and reverse-engineer any of MindArk's code to gain access to something I shouldn't be allowed to, THAT is hacking. *sigh* It's amazing how many people misuse the word "hacking"; practically everything that makes their computer crash, slow down, make an error message, BSOD, is caused by "hackers" these days.

This explains why that Rx unit was chipping out.

Yeah, I should buy a gold card, But I never seem to get around to it.

At least I change my password every week, I've gotten used to it after having to change mine all the time at work

i'll think the correct phrase to use are "Cracker" not hacker.
