i got hacked the day after thanksgiving....lost my sos hero shield and frost sword and i found the stall. There was a guy with the same exact sword and shield as mine. same blues too....wtf??? so i tried talking to him but nothing.so now i created a new guy.

so the purpose of this topic is?

Well that sucks. Can you recall a time in the recent past that you downloaded a questionable file from a website or from someone on MSN/AIM?

Rarely do people actually get 'hacked'. They get their passwords figured out or they download a keylogger.

Being hacked is when someone has access to every part of your computer and can be there watcing at any time.(I think ) It's a much more serious deal than losing your SRO items.

Always have something negative to say eh?

Anyway im sorry you got hacked

meh...

too many retardarded people playing this game

thats sucks, i hope u can get on your feet again.
i read that theres a trade, party, whatever hack going on. well its possible. if SRO clients manage pm between party members directly, i dont know if it does it or not, but if it does it there is a chance that a hacker could take your ip and scan your pc for windows vulnerabilitys, trojan horses, spywares, vulnerabilitys in other companys products that u are using. i know that even some printer old drivers can give access to a hacker if he/she know how to xploit those bugs. the "best" way to prevent this is by installing a good antivirus/firewall, so far as i know there are no 100% effitive antivirus or firewalls around but its better than go around with 0/0 protection
ps.: actually i have no idea how SRO client handles party/trade pms, but knowing how Joymax handles other issues related to the game security i wouldnt find very dificult to imagine that they choose the worst way to deal with that.
ps.2: this link has info about preventing hack attacks: http://www.silkroadforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=9141&highlight=hacking+prevention there are more threads like this in the forum so u can check and find out how to make a little more safe your time in inet
