Ok... I have a question about people being hacked... do hackers use this program to get onto your account or they get on after you tell them your pass??? If its the program i guess there isn't a point of changing my pass... :gloom2:

Depends on the "Hacker". Most of the time "Hackers" get your password from putting together other sources of information like your friends, Facebook page, keylogging a person's computer, and/or etc.

Uh.. usually people only get into your account after they acquired your password.

Hacking in my opinion is just keyloggers, and the fault of people who give their passwords to every person they see. Phishing is a problem too.

If anyone used you account before, or if you use generic passwords for all your accounts, it doesn't take an 'uber 1337 hax0r' to hack your account... Sometimes though, it is a keylogger.

Mk... well how often do people get keyloggers/ where do people most frequently get them/ how do i know if i have a keylogger program on my computer (i'm not sure if spy ware works 100% of the time). Sorry for so many questions.

As long as you have a good security program (ie McAfee, MalwareBytes, etc) running in the background, you should be ok. Just run a background check every so often and background your computer in the event something messes up your computer and you should be fine.

You mostly know from using a good anti virus.
You can get keyloggers in a lot of places though.
Most Mabi keyloggers usually are from tainted mods/hacks, apparently.
As for how many keyloggers most get?
I'm careful with my downloads, and don't pick up any at all.
You just need to be mindful of what you're doing.

This.
Too many trusting souls play Mabinogi. My MMO experience started with Runescape. I know what people are capable of when they're not held accountable for their actions.
