Guildie of mine Engelia, was hacked today (about 1 hour ago) for the second time in 3 days.

Did anyone see her talking to anyone in any place? be it a house or CS?

Char didn't get deleted, just the 30 plat - and some sidi items and epid guild donated to him stolen.


think the cnut has changed his details too - personally think the hacker used a keylogger. As he had the details a day and logged in and played. Then the next day was hacked again.

Firewall 4 thewin. sygate personal firewall is free and adequate against keyloggers.

Also both GOA and Mythic have stated DOZENS of times how to make your PC as secure as you can, and people just don't do it.

If the person that was 'hacked' used a decent firewall this could never happen.

Personally it makes me sad to see how many people still have their acc details stored on a hotmail account.

Holy shit Brynn, you scared me...thought you were gonna say you're account was hacked - I was bricking it.

Don't recall having heard from her in game today, my personal logs show nothing. I do agree, firewall is the way to go. Hotmail accounts are a big no no.

Lets hope he lives in a country where computer hacking is highly illegal

Caught the bastard? Really? Do you have any details? Two of our guildies were hit by something like this some week ago, the fool proceeded to empty the chars and clear the guild vaults and then deleted the chars. Fortunately, the chars were restored, but all the items are gone forever. This could be the same guy, and if so, I'd love to hear if we got our revenge in the end.

Just told my guildie to email Kemor and just say exactly wot happened. dont miss out any minor detail.

He cant give the items back - but gives some justice if the git is caught

Saw Engelia yesterday evening at about 17:00 - 18:00 GMT in Gothwaite Harbor. Like Natswoo said no armor and weapons.

Didn't pay real attention to it either, more people walk around without items just for fun sometimes, and I wasn't aware Engelia got hacked 2 times before..

Good thing they caught the fecker, getting hacked is one of the worst things that can happen DAoC wise imo..
Just hope the items/money can be restored in any way..

Hope they publicly hang the person, I'll come and watch the ceremony :D

Seems alot of people are getting hacked, too many to be a coincidence, did Kemor say how it was done?

I think there is more to this than meets the eye, I personally have a seperate PC with a firewall protecting my entire network and ZA protecting the PC's, my passwords are stored on removable USB sticks which get removed when not used. I cant beleive after all this that peopel are still getting hacked through stupidity.

GOA appears to been hacked once maybe twice yet its us that appear to have a security problem?

I think there is more to this issue..
