Accounts Protection help

[johnnxiv]

Recently I have heard many accounts get stolen,

Does anyone know why?

 

Can you tell me tips and tricks on protect accounts from Cookie Grabber and hackers?

 

Can Cookie Grabber take account pin number?

TDN has a guide on Cookie Grabbers right here and tips on how to prevent being cookie grabbed as well: http://www.thedailyneopets.com/articles/cookie-grabbers/

Make sure you have a tough, very secure password that only you would remember (as well as a PIN), and no one else. Also, I suggest swapping to Firefox and installing NoScript if you have fears of cookie grabbers.

If I use BoScripts, is it going to block any of my application?

 

I used to save my passwords on Firefox,

 

Is it very dangerous?

I never heard of BoScripts before. Mind explaining what it is to me? Google search is showing me it's either an advertisement company or something to do with scripts.

 

Never, ever save your passwords on your web browser. Never save your passwords on your computer either. If you have to write them down, then do it on a piece of paper, and keep it in a secure and safe place. As a general rule of thumb: If it's on your computer, it can be stolen.

shiranui_xiii, you know, the B and the N is kind of close to each other on the keyboard. (or at least on the english one)

I belive johnnxiv meant No script ^_^

[shiranui_xiii]

Dramatic, I scanned through a few more pages of search results and BoScript is apparently malware too.

 

Johnnxiv, if you meant NoScript, then no, it won't interfere with your applications. You can customize NoScript to allow those applications to run.

I meaned NoScripts lol

 

neopet doesnt auto log out when browser close?

[Sweetdang]

depending on your browser. e.g if you are on google incognito, it will log out when you shut down or switch user but not when you close it (I think.) And for other non hidden browsers, I don't think it logs out.
