Well my AIM was hacked a while ago some guy was able to read all my convos and i'm like wtf well turns out the cops got him and he got kicked out of school and is always being monitred while on a computer ! and well hacking is just lame. I was looking around and theres websites were you can boot people from aim and get peoples password is that even legal ???? do any of you do that kinda thing ?

doesnt use aim because i never liked how it looked... booting.. its legal i guess stealing passwords isnt but its not to easy to do... i know that with yahoo you can just get a program that will boot ppl off the chat room..or their messenger.. i think aim is the same.. however lots of those programs are made so that they can get your password..so beware..
may i ask how you were hacked? did they actually crack your password..or did they just log you or what.. and how did you catch him? |

Consider yourself lucky, if it were me, you wouldn't know
1. guessed your pass 2. logged your pass 3. sent you a program you opened that sent him your pass 4. unlikely, bruteforced your pass |

Does aim have one of those "secret question" things? if it does those are usually easy to get past if you know the person...

I'm not sure, I think they do. AOL has it, buts its optional.
Those security questions are really annoying. You could have the most secure password in the world, "guarded" with a question that someone could get the answer to by talking to you for five minutes. It's really pathetic that so few places let you choose your own question. |

Unless you can create a model that creates the most possible combination of keys that you get when i mash my keyboard randomly you're not likely to find out my secret answer.
TIP Take questions like "What's my pet's name" and answer like this. asdflj12l34j12089sdfasdlfkjl12j3l1j23409809qw8er0qwerjlasdjf Wanna bet that noone guesses that? Only problem is that you cannot afford to lose your normal password. |

Heck, if that's the case, just copy a null character from outputted console to the answer. Then, without copy/paste, it is impossible for someone to answer the question.

And yeah I hate when you can't choose your security question so I put my oreantion in my profile that i'm straight but really i'm not and they always put straight so they normally give up but still its illigal invasion of privacy ! and sitese that give out applications to steal passwords should be taken down/ |
