    Default Hacked

    Well, I was on facebook and I noticed someone had posted on my dogs account (joke account) I had made.

    I then changed the pass for it.

    THEN I seen that my main account was hacked aswell, but I managed to save it by changing the pass again. I've changed my email password to, but I'm wondering how the hell they got them?

    have you been on any other website and entered the password through that? sounds daft but there are some amazing phishers out there.
    spyware? what anti-virus do you use?
    also if your password isnt that strong, maybe somebody you know could have guessed it?

    I don't THINK so. I use AVG and am doing a full system scan right now. No one could have guessed both passwords that quickly, they were seconds apart.

    What do you mean by a DB? Both had different passwords.

    Wouldn't be this if they had different passwords, it was personal.
