I am using Linux , i am IT so i am pretty sure that the computer is not compromised
The only thing i see possible i did mistake when i started use bitcoin i used same password as bitcointalk
there is no other possible way the password is 8 char long with Upper and lowercase
i can only blame myself that i was not using 2FA but lesson learned i post this that maybe it can help or will help someone in futur
8 char long? So crackable in a few minutes/hours depending on the setup of the cracker. I never use password of less than 16 characters and upper, lower cases and also symbols (!, $, %, etc.) if its possible.
And being in IT and not using 2 factor auth on a site like MtGox should automatically get you fired from your job. Seriously, what were you thinking about?
Plus, working in IT and reusing passwords instead of using unique, random generated ones by default on ALL sites you use is so retarded you should be banned from the IT industry.
Well, beats the Bitcoinica crew.
Those guys were using their public API key as the password and did not bother enabling OTP on Gox even though they were handling tens of thousands of customer bitcoins. Some even labeled themselves "Security Expert". Oh, and they didn't think making a backup of customer data was necessary either.
Of course, I turned out to be the bigger fool for banking with them...
