My ip address been hacked
I received a text message on my mobile phone. I opened it. It was a $1000 voucher by Woolworths company. I accidentally opened it.now I have difficulty getting into my online games. Tried every thing. Emailed alot of providers.I am still having the same problems. I downloaded firefox and tried my online game again
Problem is still there.what can I do to go back to normal and protect my ip address. Please HELP ME
Kermex,
I am sorry to hear that you think that the Ip address has been hacked. It has not. An Ip on a network can change every time you connect to the internet. It is the Mac address that is unique to your device. You can try to reset the password to the online games.
Please provide an example of what online game you use, it will help direct you to the support for that gaming platform. Also you can block these in the future by contacting your mobile phone provider as well as use Ad Block Plus for furture ads on your browser.

I believe my apache server could have been hacked. Is there a member of the community that could take a look at the paste of my http.conf file. Thanks so much
# Mac OS X / Mac OS X Server
# The <IfDefine> blocks segregate server-specific directives
# and also directives that only apply when Web Sharing or
# server Web Service (as opposed to other services that need Apache) is on.
# The launchd plist sets appropriate Define parameters.
# Generally, desktop has no vhosts and server does; server has added modules,
# custom virtual hosts are only activated when Web Service is on, and
# default document root and personal web sites at ~username are only
# activated when Web Sharing is on.
# This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file. It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2> for detailed information.
# In particular, see
# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/directives.html>
# for a discussion of each configuration directive.
# Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding
# what they do. They're here only as hints or reminders. If you are unsure
# consult the online docs. You have been warned.
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do *not* begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "log/foo_log"
# with ServerRoot set to "/usr" will be interpreted by the
# server as "/usr/log/foo_log".
# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.
# Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path. If you point
# ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to point the LockFile directive
# at a local disk. If you wish to share the same ServerRoot for multiple
# httpd daemons, you will need to change at least LockFile and PidFile.
ServerRoot "/usr"
# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
# ports, instead of the default. See also the <VirtualHost>
# directive.
# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses.

I have a MSN email address but using a Mac; recently I cannot access my man email account; have I been hacked and what should I do? Thanks
simply telling us you can't access your email really tells us nothing. more details please.

My email account has been hacked and my address book has been used to send unsolicitated emails to all my contacts.
First of all
Run windows in safe mode (with network) and change your password on your email account.
Then
run several anti-malware programs (there are many free ones, but not all are trustworthy)
Malwarebyte >> http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
Microsoft Safety Scanner >> http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Windows Defender >> http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/using-defender
Spybot >> http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html
Kasperky >> http://www.kaspersky.com/security-scan
Rootkit scanner TDSS-Killer >> http://support.kaspersky.com/5350
And when all is clean, change password for your email account again. -

I had to create a new account on the forum to post this question as I can't get my old login to work.
Anyone else having this problem or has Firefox been hacked and my "User Name" sent to someone else?Hi maheman,
Can you try to recover the password with the email and private message me a timestamp. I can ask an admin to take a look at the technical side of what is happening, the email is removed from the public thread, however it may be necessary to investigate. (please include just the username in the private message)
Thank you. -
Hi! My name is Derek Turner and I have been hacked through a friend's email message to me which I opened unsuspecting any danger. Initially, he sent me an 'attention' or warning email with a link which I tried to open but it could not be opened, so I left it not knowing what it was all about at the time. Later, I received another email from him (probably the hacker) and opened a 'not very pleasant' web site. It did not twig with me at the time as I am a bit new to this type of thing but when I mentioned it to my wife she immediately said that I had been 'hacked'. By this time it was too late, and it infected all my email addresses! I would be grateful if you may know if there is software that I can use to clean up my email account and if there is anything for iPad minis that can prevent this happening in future? (Malware, Firewall?). I am also getting emails back that relate to the hacker and I cannot 'delete' them from my iPad, only on my PC! Any suggestions?
Thank you for your time regarding this matter,
Derek Turner,( a very new iPad mini user!)Hi,
I don't think that can be solved by any advice the regular posters could post here.
I would go back to Apple and explain the situation (again).
I would also consider closing the account (Apple rarely seem to do this as accounts are never deleted but just closed).
I understand this may cause issues for things purchased in iTunes and the App Store which my include Restoring the OS at some point.

My imessages have been hacked and recovery email changed and I can't delete it! (with pic)
My iMessages have been hacked and the hacker entered his email as the recovery email with security questions I can't answer. I contacted Apple support and went through the 24 hour process of changing my info so that I could get into the account, but his email address is still the recovery address and it does not give me the option to delete it. I've added alternate emails that can be deleted, but it will not let me change or delete the recovery email. I can change phones and passwords a million times, but if he can just recover my password what am I supposed to do? I have turned iMessage off on my phone (as well as the gps) but I would really like help in deleting that recovery email if anyone has any bright ideas! The pic below shows the only place in all of the settings that his email address shows up anywhere! Any help is very very very appreciated.

How do I know If my computer has been hacked?
I think my Mac just got hacked into. I was working on a doc. that had personnel information- names. Phone #s and my home street address. my mac book pro froze up and when it unfroze, all of the names, phone#s and my address changed to ?/-\|# After I stared at the screen w disbelief for less than 1 sec. Word closed it down. After 2 min. Word brought the 2 word doc. I was working on back onto the screen. I looked at the personnel info, and saw the names, phone numbers and my street address in numbers and words. It looked like as if nobody touched my Mac. What should I do? I need help badly. If my computer has been hacked, the information they took, can they steal identity, credit card #s with just phone #s and first&last names besides my street address. I havent touched my computer since thus happened. I'm my iPhone. Should I turn off my computer? Also ididnt save the doc. I was working on. a box came up and said "this file is read-only. To save a copy, click OK and give the document a new namein the Save dialog box( AutoRecovery save of document1)". What should I do? I'm not making this up. I watched everything without realizing what happened. Should I have turned my computer off while it was in the middle of the proscess? Help! Help!
You have not been hacked. Something went wrong with Word and it crashed, and something must have reopened Word. (The system will usually ask if you want to reopen a crashed app... did you see such a message?) Word must have simply reopened the docs you had open when it crashed.
It's actually quite difficult to hack a Mac, and pretty much requires you to help out by opening it up for potential access by hackers. -
How can I get my 25 pounds back. It's been stolen from my itunes account to buy KingdomConquest stuff. I' ve been hacked via itunes - I had a prepaid card in there.
I work in it, am very careful, and this is the first time since 1985 when i starter using i.t. That i've been hacked. Thank you apple. It seems like a very common problem with apple.
What's the email address i should use to get my money back and report it ? As usual the apple phone lines don' t answer, an they make life as difficult as possible for anyone to gt redress.It's most likely not you, no matter what they say. I have noticed a LOT of fraud with itunes, even with my own account. One time I caught them doing a database restore. I know this because my password automagically reverted back to an old one! I'm an IT guy who helped design DOD classified networks in the mid-pacific. I know security. The best protection for this is to NOT have a credit card listed in iTunes. Use iTunes cards ONLY. It's a pain, but until they step up, it's all you got.

How do I know if my computer has been hacked into?
I am having two issues with my iMac. One is with my wireless -- in the past few days I've received a few times an IP address error, which seems to be solved by renewing the DHCP lease and restarting. Also, at the login screen when I restart, it takes two tries to log in -- on the first one, my password only partially registers and the screen "bounces", then the second try works. Could this mean that my computer has been compromised? We had some workmen alone in our flat while we were away recently, so there are a few people who've had access to the physical machine as well. Thanks for any help.
You have not been hacked. Something went wrong with Word and it crashed, and something must have reopened Word. (The system will usually ask if you want to reopen a crashed app... did you see such a message?) Word must have simply reopened the docs you had open when it crashed.

I believe my BlackBerry has been HACKED
This may sound crazy. I've been using Blackberry for 7 years and have never encountered something like this. I woke up to my alarm last week and as I reached for it I noticed a messaged had popped up on my screen that said "Your phone has been hacked" with an exclamation mark inside a Triangle beside it. I read the msg at the same moment I touched my phone to turn off my alarm and the message disapearred. Rubbing my eyes I thought I was seeing things.
Last night Microsoft outlook mailed me to inform me my account had been accessed from another country. I changed ALL my passwords immediately and ONLY entered the new passwords into my Blackberry to re-sync my accounts. An hour ago I just got an email from a different email account saying my other email had been accessed. But the ONLY place I'd entered the NEW password for this other email account had been on my blackberry. Whoever accessed my other account already had my NEW password, and the only place I entered that new password was on my blackberry device.
I now believe the message I saw on my phone that morning was actually there and I don't know what to do! Is it possible for a Blackberry to display that message to a user? Please help!If the messages are in your email, these are very common scams.
If you have a popup directly on your desktop of the Blackberry phone when not running an application this is very strange. This should never happen! If it is in an email, then it is obvious it is email content. If the popup is in a software then it is the software that is the problem.
If I was to see a popup on the desktop of a Blackberry device, I would wipe the phone and re-install the operating system. Using the Link software backup the user files first. If your data is not important you can skip the backup. First make sure your phone is synced with some type of service to preserve your email addresses. You can re-install the OS using the Link software. This is sort of a long process, but not too difficult to do.
I know a lot of people including myself who get these scams. I just hope you never answered to any of these, and NEVER clicked on any links and fill out their forms.
With your Blackberry phone, as long you use original Blackberry software and NEVER follow instrcutions from Scam email you should be safe. If you ever filled out any of these Scam forms you very quickly must change your passwords.
With your phone or computer NEVER open any emails, and especially attachments unless you are sure the source is safe.
The email services, financial services, operating systems services, and distributors will never send you emails asking about passwords and personal information. The only time you would receive an email from any of these services is if you solicited to have an email from them.
If you are installing Android software be cautious. Many Android programs can be a security issue with the phone. The whole idea of the Blackberry phone is for the security. Using Android software does add some risk.
I have been told the safest download sites are 1mobile and Amazon for Android programs to be used on the Blackberry phone. But, there are no absolute guarantees.
When I first got my Passport, I tried an Android software that looked interesting to me. I downloaded it from the Google server for Android programs. The phone started to work very slow, and the program was displaying banners on the screen when I was using the program. It was a free chess game. I tried to uninstall this game and it would not go out! I had a backup from before I installed this program. The best I could do to get rid of it was to wipe the phone and re-install the OS. This fixed it.
I hope all this helps you out. I am a user like anyone else, and when i have time I participate in these groups. In my family we have a lot of Blackberry phones. We like this phone a lot.
