Hacked

Post by Mattb »

Some fucker has hacked my hotmail account today :x :( :(

Had it since late 2000 with no problems, even used it this moen. Then this aft it doesn;t work, and my secret question is now 'what was your first pet called?'. Well as i've never had a pet, it'll be hard to answer that!

Well annoyed.

Guessing the password? If it is just a normally word, you can just run a program which tries each word in turn. Or it could be someone who knows your password, or even the answer to your original secret question.

Or it could be Al-Qaeda.

Just get yourself a Googlemail account - more storage and better features (although probably just as hackable).
