I have uncovered a case where a user from one country gave access to their account to non-user from another country. May be with something like this, it will be easier to spot these kinds of activities. Something like: last IP changed from xxx to xxx. Any thoughts? Thanks
If you have an account on a known Snitz modded version, that would be the source of the hack. It has happened with many members and we even posted a warning about that a while ago.
your account can't be hacked unless a) you gave someone your password b) you have a very easy password to guess or c) you are a member of Images forum and have the same login/password here as you do there.
In answer to your question, just becasue someones IP changes doesn't mean they are a different person. I access this forum from atleast half a dozen different places and even more if I am away from home.
Even accessing a forum from one location, if you have a dynamic IP, it's going to change with every visit so you'd just end up being completely overrun by these e-mails.
Search is your friend “I was having a mildly paranoid day, mostly due to the fact that the mad priest lady from over the river had taken to nailing weasels to my front door again.”
HuwR, I understand what you are saying. I have not given my password to anyone. But, someone was able to put a quote and some sentence in my signature space. From what was written the person did this appears to be Image.
Notify Admin if the last ip changes
