    He gets the passwords to my social networking sites and/or online games.


    Did I use them interchangeably? I don't recall.



    @Disillusion, I don't use Limewire. I use another P2P network. Not that it matters they're all equally unsafe, but as long as I run my antivirus/antispyware and have my firewall up and running I can minimize any damage done to my system.

    I apologize then. My cousins the one who cracks, he's the one with the keyloggers. I prefer looking for backdoors into his system. I'd assume that is hacking. Unless I've been wrong for the last year.

    It's funny when you see a bunch of people with no real clue about hacking trying to sound tough when they say they're always "hacking their mates PCs".

    I rofl hard every time.
     
  6. It wasn't Limewire, it was offsite, and I've come to find out that that wasn't even the source of the spyware/adware. I was sent a link via MSN with my email address in it (Yes, I know this has been going around for a while), and not registering what it could be I clicked it. The adware/spyware infected my computer, sent the link to all of my friends on MSN, and fried my old harddrive.

    I'm not sure if this was directed at me, but it's not my mate. It's my cousin. And I don't want to sound tough. I just really like sequences and puzzles.
