    WARNING!!!! Looted accounts!

    I chatted briefly with Proxy in game this morning (Monday). He informed me that last night (Sunday, 10/9/2005) after he logged off, someone apparently looted his account of over 1,000 gold and several purple items. He's now involved in the misery of account verification with Blizzard...

    So, a word to the wise from him...CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD! NOW!!!!

    Cant really believe this. It is extremely hard w/o giving your user info for someone to hack your WoW account. Ive even tried running a random word/number generator program on the login screen and came up with squat. Still keeping your password different every six weeks or so ise a good idea.

    One key to this is that Alakazam posted that one of their advertiser's links was corrupted with a key logging Trojan...fixed now, but that could do it.

    Another clue is that Blizzard has been posting about deleting gold and acquired items from accounts that somehow got their gold even indirectly from hacked accounts.
