So I just got home and checked by BTC balance on my strongcoin account. I had the page open already in my browser and I just wanted to see the balance update with the latest $ value. Balance went from around 17 BTC to zero. I feel pretty gutted and am struggling to fiure out how it happened and feeling really foolish as I am an IT professional and know about security, using SSL, encrypted VPN etc.
Anyone here have experience with strongcoin able to help me figure out the transaction history of my account? It doesn't seem to make sense, my public address for the account is listed as the recipient whether its a deposit or withdrawal and there are multiple recipient addresses lisrted in some transactions with the final withdrawal (the theft that cleaned me out) there are several including mine. I'm pretty confused.
