Hacking
So I just recieved an email from the forum informing me that someone has tried logging in as me and got the password wrong 5 times !!
It gives me an IP address - question is that IP address trackable?
I cant imagine what they would do once logged in as me ????
Maybe they dont like my signature pictures

Re : IP's - Yes they are ( not sure who to ask for it though ) ...
They were probably after your good stuff ...
I'd change your password just to be sure.
Cheers, Bantum ...

I have always been active in the forum up to the point of posting comments. Every time I have some valid point to add I am overwhelmed by the relentless posts by our local Forum Terrorist!!......now let me think....what's his name.........Steptoe:)steptoe wrote:or designed to get you back in on the forum ??
Could be script kiddie, someone spoofing their IP or using a anonomous proxy in .cn for shits and giggles.
Update your anti viri and malware scanners, take your machine offline and do a full system scan. If you can scan in safe mode even better.
If you have been using the same password for a while, might be time to look at a password safe that can generate and store new passwords.
Change your email password aswell, it may be compromised and they are waiting for the password for this site (or any other site) to be emailed to you.
It's a fun new world
