If you get hacked it's always your own fault, you trusted the wrong people or downloaded something you shouldn't, if you want to avoid hacking just be careful what info you give out to people, don't tell anyone your logins and don't download stuff you shouldn't, use pw's of 12 mixed numbers and letters, your pretty safe really if you don't do any of those things.

Great_Masters 4 steps how to have a safe account!

Step Number 1!

Take a pen and a small piece of paper.

Step Number 2!

Write down all your login info. From you user name to your secret answer. Write them down before you make your account and don't use any type word or number combination. Look at you keyboard and choose random letter and numbers.
Make a long username and password!
Make a new email, which also doesn't make sense and never use it, except for this account!
Make a secret answer which doesn't make sense with the secret question!

Step Number 3!

Make your account and put that small piece of paper in a very safe place, i prefer your wallet or something similar.

Step Number 4!

Get Kaspersky Internet Security 6 or BitDefender 10 and scan your computer every 5 days with a in-depth scan.

By following these simple steps, you should have a safe account and shouldn't be worried about hacking.

It's simple. :/

1.) Don't download wierd files. Follow your instincts. If you think a file might be infected don't even take a chance.

2.) Have a secret email noone knows or can find out.

3.) Have a complex game login and pw with just random numbers/letters.

4.) Don't give your info out no matter what. No matter what reasons they give you to let them on your account don't give your info out. If you do, expect to get owned.

5.) Don't get in a persons car you don't know. Don't go anywhere with strangers. :p

It's way better than many anti-viruses right now on the market. Check some online comparisons also, you will see :wink:

It "always" being your fault only applies if you have changed your PW since JM patched the mySQL breach they had going on through their site. Even then, "fault" is a sticky word.
