It has been many times that I have seen friends complaining about how there myspace account got hacked, and posts have been made from their accounts about this..

To combat this I thought I would let everyone know exactly how these programs originally work so that we can help to stop the SPAM and the Illegal hacking that is going on for Secure Websites. Basically what I am saying is if your familiar how hacking programs work you should easily be able to make it harder for them.

What hacking programs do:

First they pick a specific Email address... Since just about every email is on myspace its pretty easy to get a valid one.

Next run the Password Program.

This program runs through the dictionary one word at a time then capitalises one letter at a time through the whole dictionary then it will repeat the entire process with numbers. Of course it can do this in any order, but most people have passwords that simple phrases or one word. Since many people capitalize the first letter of words these programs can also predict human type based on more advanced algorithms.

Sometimes this can take days to achieve the passwords so most hackers give up on that email address. Other times the program runs and your password is a simple word that is in the dictionary and it can find in a few minutes.

--- The next thing to worry about is something that you pretty much cant control. Basically if Myspace gets hacked anyone who enters there email and password can be viewed. Not because they are stored in the database but because they leave a Backdoor Program running and when someone logs it drops them your email and password. ---

How to stop this...

Make a really difficult password, and update your security settings to detect Phishing. IE 7 has these features but it needs to be updated frequently. Other programs also do a pretty good job but still all have vulnerabilities.
