Keylog Attack ~How My Story Ended~Follow

Lexxuk provided a reason why they should not, and also there are other things... Whenever you change a computer code (I do computer coding too for my university work), it takes time and money. And I have deadlines to make so my time and money will not run out.

It is like if you want to pay for cheap auto insurance, you will get less coverage. A lot of times, I am actually do not mind pay more for better service, at the same time if you want perfect service, be prepared to pay more, less time to develop game content, less time for new expansion. etc etc. And do not take the stance that SE is making tons of RL bucks that they should make less for specific interest groups. By saying that you are telling SE employee that they will get less pay raise and benefits and SE shareholders to make less from their stock investment.

It is fair game -- if you want more things and service, expect to pay more or get less from other things. However, it is unfair to other SE customers, shareholders and employees to bear the burden of individual mistakes that can easily be prevented.

Don't know if this has been addressed yet, but good keyloggers in no way/shape/form need windower or any other 3rd party app. to work. The best ones don't care what application you're running, since they're embedded more in the OS layer than an application, or straight reading the keyboard buffer...if you type it on the keyboard, it has it. Windower doesn't come into this equation.

I should have posted this about 4 pages ago.



I know it's old.

I've read these posts over the last few days and have come to a few conclusions.
1. More than half of you are real dumbasses
2. Some of you actually have a brain
3. Empathy and other social interaction tools are severely lacking in this population.

I'll leave you to guess which category you might fall under.

Personally, I do think you diserve this. Your the one who went to the link, even when you knew something was up. I would of blacklisted the player and report him on the spot. Sorry for your loss, but its just your fault.

One way to defeat keylogging(if you suspect your machine may be endangered) is to keep your password and username in a handy TXT file.

This is how I store my username and pass for stuff...

With up to 20 lines like that.(only don't keep your user name and password in caps.) Keep em with all the other decoys and in one or 2 chunks.

This isn't to help you remember your username and password its to use to cut and paste them into your login.

Also cut and paste decoys into a scrap txt file if you're paranoid about your cliboard being spied upon. Even after you log in.

It took SE quite a while, but here it is:

Actually, the underlying implication of SE's release is that it might be willing to help people who fell victim to this scam.

I wouldn't say "nothing to see here" until we get verification from the OP (or someone else) that despite this release, nothing will be done to correct the problem.

This sucks. POL's security is lacking terribly. I just posted a suggestion on the suggetion forum about it.

I'm sorry but I don't see that implication, unless by willing to help you mean, informing people of the dangers ahead of time, so they don't F-up. If anything they are saying you are responsible for your own actions.


How do you figure? How was THEIR security breached? It was the OP's security that was breached NOT POL's. Have you even read the thread?

Welcome to the modern world that noise and being loud is more important to be sensible and sound :P

May be we need a better education of scientific method and critical thinking :3

Isn't it the same deal for your email account and online payment for credit cards, mobile/land-line phone, auto insurance :3?
