    Default Just a question..

    So just tonight, we had that Habbox thing where it would download that .exe

    It ran by itself, and I got worried so I restarted my computer. For some reason, I try to log in to Habbo, and it doesn't load after I put in my info, it just brings me back to the login screen.

    (Hearing it was a virus from the Staff member)

    Any reason why? :/

    Hey,

    I don't think it would prevent Habbo from loading itself, try a different web browser.

    I do recommend scanning for viruses and changing your Habbo password, though.

    I cant change my Habbo pass, as it says it will lead me to a site named kickandbuy.

    Plus, different browser didnt work.

    You really need to disconnect your computer from the internet, change your passwords on another computer (to everything you care about preferably) and then scan your computer for viruses. If you'd like any help with any of this at all don't hesitate to drop me a PM.

    Hey there,

    I suggest you open up any security software you put on your system and scan for any viruses and malware. You may need to do this in safe mode which can normally be entered by restarting your PC and tapping F8 when it boots up.

    I did scan and found a few viruses, cleaned them off. I'll restart my computer and do a full one over night incase.

    Plus, it's like 11 PM, and all my family is asleep, so I can't really use another computer. :/

    To be sure you're safe it would be best if you could use a clean computer to change your passwords on if possible, and good to hear your antivirus caught several viruses.

    I only use that password for like the Habbo account, luckily my trade is off, and for something else, so if it gets changed, I can change it back by the email.

    Hopefully it goes well by tomorrow, and whoever did it gets punished. :/

    Rest assured the hacked staff memeber, as well as hacker were both dealt with swiftly, and I sincerely apologize on behalf of this staff member for any distress this has caused you this evening.

    Mhm..

    Thanks for the help, and I'll report in tomorrow after the overnight scan.
    Luckily I just remembered my laptop, so I'll go change some passwords now.
