I leave YIM up and running at work.
Went to work, came back, and a co-worker (who's on my YIM list) comes over...
"Hey, did you send these messages?"
It's the same messages, repeated twice:
MY SPACE YA http://zzz.y-grupo.com/ccount/arquivo.php?download=20 THIS PROGRAM IS PRINT SCREEN BY ME
(I mangled the link on purpose---it takes you directly to download )
I went to my desk, and my YIM had been logged out.
I quickly went to my yahoo account and changed my password, but I wonder if
a) this was a particular type of "attack" that could occur without my password knowledge
b) they got my password
What's interesting is I don't think I've typed in my YIM password for weeks (months) - I have it auto-remembered.
