Account Hacking

Buddah, I wouldn't think you would mess with my account. I know you don't do that. I'm sure you're responsible enough to resist doing that. So far, I think you're a good moderator. :thumbsup:

A couple of questions:

 

Have you ever logged into tesnexus from a public location?

 

Have you ever logged in at a friends/relatives house?

 

Have you ever logged in a wireless LAN/WIFI network anywhere?

Have you ever logged into tesnexus from a public location?

 

I have logged in during school. But I blocked the school IP from accessing my board regarding USF studios.

 

Have you ever logged in at a friends/relatives house?

 

So far, maybe. I think being accessed was my next door neighbour who owns the Xbox Live tag : TIMMMAAAYYYY. It could be the kids who done that. I'll ask them right now.

 

Have you ever logged in a wireless LAN/WIFI network anywhere?

 

I don't believe I have. I think logging in from school was pretty much it.

The reason I ask is others will put a username/password trap on public computers or wifi routes....some for fun others for their own intentions. The one in windows can even be configured to run hidden and record sites/usernames and passwords. Schools are not a good place to log into anywhere, they won't tell you so, but the school servers may be configured record every keystroke, sitesvisited/usernames and passwords for security reasons. There system and their rules, and yes it is legal.

That is why when using a public computer to surf the web, I either use Firefox Portable or Torpark Portable. Auto-Deletes History and asks to verify certificates of certain adds.

 

This happens to me on TESNexus once:

 

"WARNING! The certificate of the site (site name here; in this case an add) is not valid! Your session may be being watched and/or intercepted. Accept certificate?"

 

Sounds fishy to me...

Yes I take security steps as well, but this is what I deal with as part of my job and security is something Dark0ne takes seriously as well, we do not have open access to everything, just what we need to moderate effectively and keep things orderly on the main site.

I asked my real life friends, and they did not pledge guilty.

Hmmm... Well, I would by wary about what you do on the web until this is resolved (i.e. personal information, credit card #, SS #, etc. Basically do not make any online transactions).

Since you have changed your password, waiting to see what happens is the course to be taken.......if it does not happen again problem solved. If it happens again, then there could be a problem.

Firefox Portable will also bypass all ie based smartfilers! ! ! !
