I received an email from Blizzard Entertainment the other day informing me that my World of Warcraft account was hacked. After running a few different malwae scans, I discovered that a keylogger had somehow installed itself on my system. I pride myself on running a clean machine, so this hack was more of personal affront than a cause for alarm. The keylogger is now eradicated and I’ve changed my most critical passwords (email, banking, etc), so this mischief shouldn’t inflict any lasting harm. But I’ll be more diligent about running weekly system scans. I suppose I should also be more selective about the fishnet-related sites I visit.
