How's he gotten hold of your info in the first place? You may have a key logger on your comp, or some other software giving away your info.

Or you basically use the same password for everything and he's having a very easy run at it all. :lol:

Key loggers have been know to arrive with a scuppered flash updater. In fact this has been a favourite for some time.

Can you recall updating anything of late whether flash or not, from any site you've visited?

It only takes the once bud, but it does sound to me like either a keylogger or some such prog you've got on there. He's been gathering info for a little time and decided to act upon it.

Hope whatever has happened, you get it sorted soon mate. :safe:

I think I've sorted it... he was a persistant bugger, after I sorted my EA account out, he tried to change my password again... think whoever it was has given up... All my passwords have been changed and my comp is now clean, and I've installed a keystroke encrypter... so hopefully if whoever it was trys again they'll hit a brick wall.
Cheers for your advice Rusty. Hope you and your family have a good Christmas, and all the best for 2012 :o7:
