Used to be hard, but now, no. In fact, it’s too easy now. A tool has been released specially for that.

so could that explain why i keep getting hacked in sgf?

i juz did a scan using kaspersky suite trial.. found 0 threats..

ndmmxiaomayi SG

Yes, most probably. I suggest you turn off wireless and used the wired function of your router.

putting a password can stop this right?

btw.. i found some other com/lappie using my connection currently..

the first is my sis lappie
the third is this com.. whos the 2nd com!??!

ndmmxiaomayi SG

Some one else. And the one breaking into your account.

Putting a password will solve your problem temporarily, but I reckon if he's able to crack your account, he will crack your network password as well, which is why I asked you to use wires instead.

ndmmxiaomayi SG

He doesn't need to hack your computer. The hack tool can run on his own computer, which is why there's no threats found.

can a wire use for laptop?

and would getting a more secure wireless router be better?

ndmmxiaomayi SG

Yup. Laptops have those ports for wired connections.

There's no such thing as a more secured wireless router. They are all the same. It's the way you secure it that makes the difference.

Using MAC address filtering, using a password (correct term is encryption) to secure your connections is the best.

As long as you can protect your computer and IP from beig the victim or tool of criminal activities and used as scapegoat, all the cracker can get from you are your surfing habits and tons of pr0n and korea drama episodes Laughing

ndmmxiaomayi SG

No. Call for hacking, maybe. But good luck finding him.

ndmmxiaomayi SG

Can. But you know there are so many MAC addresses?
