reading these replies you should know it probably wasn’t him, he may have clicked a link too, just like you.
How can people so wrapped in computers and the internet be so trusting, NEVER trust an online virus or trojan scan, get yer own program to do it with, i recommend Agnitum’s Tauscan for a good trojan blocker/cleaner, and there are hundreds of antivirus proggies. Agnitum also happens to make a really good firewall, Outpost.
For The last time people, it isn’t my name, my computer, or my account, however i need to say it. I cant get in touch with the guy it happened to right now to share all this with him, the reason i posted the topic was to be able to secure my own computer. Thanks for all the info it is helpful having new sites and learning new info, even if it isnt what i was looking for.
it actually wasn’t my name, it was a friend of mine’s, but i’m concerned because the people responsible are very unpredictable, using basically any excuse they can to wreak havoc and cause trouble. obviously Yahoo abuse reporting is automated, so theyre not going to do anything about it, but all the information i have is that the guys who did this were bragging in the room about using the cookie to gain access to the person’s account. regarding the secret question(s), they also bragged that they had changed those as well. at any rate, I’m sure everything will eventually work out, but messenger services being predominantly used for advertising purposes, they may not be too quick to patch this exploit. thanks for the help, i think i have given the basic outline of the information i have.
That site was basically useless for answering my question, but thanks anyway. Im just at a loss because if these guys are capturing my info from my cookie, changing my password isnt going to help.
could be they simply hit a single key after sending previous message…you know fingeres do slide off enter onto ‘
