... time for me to change my passwords... I got hacked over the weekend. I see the flamming that this a-hole did in that army app. board (see reaction in that topic) I'm also screwed with a friend of mine and his girl friend and right now its hard to explane, or understand for that matter, why a hacker said sexual coments to this girl. Sooo any ideas on how to fix all of this?
EDIT: my friend sGirl friend got harrassed throught Facebook (WTF???) and how offten do people get hacked through Facebook?

First off: What?
You got your bookface hacked? And then 'you' said sexual things to his girlfriend? Is that what you're saying?
Second of all, this is why facebook/myspace are stupid and pointless, unlike fulfilling forums such as this one. I think that as far as you need to go to get in touch with people is texting or e-mail. Ever heard of nerfing? Well that is one problem that could easily be avoided.
And thirdly, make a more secure password! That's all you can do really. If you use one password for everything first change it, and if you want to go farther, create multiple passwords, as long as you remember which websites they go to. Make sure that these passwords aren't remotely hard to guess. Don't make it an inside joke, don't make it anyone's name, do have it relate to any hobbies (swimming). Just make it something that no one could guess in a million years. You can't do much of anything else. Unless someone else has any ideas, that's all I think you can do.

Facebook is for contacting people you actually know. There are several people I know from my summer job, and nowadays the only way I get to contact them is through facebook. Don't judge a facebook by it's cover.

Don't judge a facebook by it's cover. i c wut u did thar!!!!!!!1 As B&B said, making a secure password is your best bet. Hachi is probably the only person I would ever trust with my password, at least among those I still see actively, and I think my passwords are random enough to avoid detection by all others. At least, my newer ones are. Don't tell anybody your password, ever, unless it's somebody to whom you hold utter, unadulterated trust. Also, don't cruise with the same password all the time. It's alright to use the same one for several different areas, so long as they are not important. But if you've been running around with something like, say, your screen name and use that for all of your passwords, it's gonna hurt when somebody inevitably finds it.

Thats why the "you" was in air quotes. It means that I'm implying that it appears that you sent it but it was actually the hacker.
