Hacking? by Ouija_46 on 10-26-2008 at 07:24 PM
Id just like to know if its poss that someone could hack into my msn without the need of my password or personal information. Thanks.
RE: Hacking? by RaPLeX on 10-26-2008 at 07:57 PM
No,firstly he should get your password [with trojan,keyloger etc] for sign in your account.Or 2nd way to hack is secret question&answer.
RE: Hacking? by Ouija_46 on 10-26-2008 at 08:06 PM

Now you need info such as location, postcode etc before you can reset a password. It's not just a secret question now

Yes, if i wanted to "hack" your msn account looking in the phone book would help how exactly? They don't list emails do they.
RE: Hacking? by Jarrod on 10-26-2008 at 10:51 PM
they may know your location and they probably know your name so they can find the postcode and that sort of stuff, also u could go to face book look up the email and get their name(if they have face book) then use the phone book, trust me i have done it to ppl i don't like it is still not particularly hard
RE: Hacking? by Chancer on 10-26-2008 at 10:51 PM
If you know the name, you can find the phone, and therefore the location.
RE: Hacking? by Quantum on 10-26-2008 at 10:54 PM
Well imo it's possible but very unlikely.
RE: Hacking? by Jarrod on 10-26-2008 at 11:02 PM
i've done it to ex girlfriends and a few others, it is quite easy

RE: Hacking? by Jarrod on 10-26-2008 at 11:09 PM

RE: Hacking? by Nathan on 10-26-2008 at 11:37 PM

Please tell me you don't actually believe that hacking a hotmail account is as simple as setting up brutus with a wordlist.
Porn sites' security != Multi-Million Dollar enterprise security.
If it really were that simple, then we would all lose access to our accounts on a daily basis.
@Ouija_46
More than likely, it's someone who you know, who knows your details and so on. The questions that the password recovery techs ask aren't really that hard and generally, most people with a good knowledge of you can generally lie their way through.
The other possibility is that you have an infected computer recording your keypresses and sending someone all of this.
The last possibility is that you have become the victim of a "Phishing" attack. Which means that you probably entered your email id and password at a site designed to make it look like the real live id login site.

Social engineering is the easiest way to "hack" someones account. Get to know them, what they like, friend's names etc... Easy.
As for the phone book... I had a dodgy phone call a couple of weeks ago... Police tracked the number to a Mr X or blah road.
Census --> Phone book --> phone call --> One 18 year old punk in hospital

Actually ,, I really don't believe that anyone can hack into my account just because he knows where do i live and my phone no. he has a lot of challenges such as un-breakable password and I don't think he'll know what I was thinking as an answer to secret question

I used this once

A generator would break that quite easily..by definition any password can be broken as it is essentially a random combination of letters/numbers/symbols (of which there is a finite number, or at least a maximum number of characters allowed).....so given long enough, any password will be broken as eventually it would guess the right combination

Ive tried one of these generators before , and believe it or not ,, it couldn't break it
or maybe its my luck
RE: Hacking? by Nathan on 10-31-2008 at 09:32 PM
A generator has no time limit. It will keep going for hundreds and millions of years if needed/wanted too theoretically. But the chances of anyone wanting to wait that long for your password is very minimal haha.
