    Read more on how to protect your account.
    Different software, scripts and browser plug-ins are being advertised in Habbo.
    They may come in form of fun gadget or tool or other seemingly useful thing.
    These programs include plug-ins / add-ons, .exe-, .xpi-files.
    You should never install these programs.
    They are very dangerous as they will steal your username and password and send them forward to unknown individuals who in turn will steal your furni and scam your account.
    There are no safe Habbo editing or altering programs!

    Untrue? (the program they're talking about - if you know which one it is)

    Infórmate sobre cómo debes proteger tu cuenta en Habbo
    Un consejo que debes seguir siempre es no instalar nunca en tu ordenador programas que incluyan plug-ins, add-ons, .exe- o .xpi-files. Un ejemplo son los programas script, que pueden tener como objetivo final el de acceder a tu cuenta y hacerse con todo lo que haya en ella, incluidos tus Furni.
    ¡Ten siempre mucho cuidado con lo que instalas en tu ordenador!

    Pas på software, script og browser plug-ins til Habbo!
    Vigtig information: I øjeblikket bliver der reklameret for forskellig software, script og browser plug-ins på Habbo. De kommer sommetider i form af sjove gadget, programmer og andre nyttige ting. Disse programmer er ofte plug-ins / add-ons, .exe-, .xpi-filer.
    Du skal ALDRIG installere disse programmer. De er meget farlige, da de registrerer dit brugernavn og adgangskode til din Habbo, og sender oplysningerne til individer der vil logge på din bruger og stjæle dine møbler og din bruger.
    Der er ingen sikre tredjeparts programmer til Habbo! Pas på dig selv i Habbo universet!

    Tech staff are going to patch the latest & other releases. They're also sorting out the photo's so you can no longer have real images.
