Hi,

Just a word of warning to everybody out there from somebody who is now forcibly out of the Bitcoin game.

I hold a BTCT account.  This account was compromised, I had locked the payout address to my own wallet.

My various shares were all cashed out to my address.

Subsequently my wallet was emptied (including some 15 or so other bitcoins I had)

My Wallet was covered with a 25 character long passphrase. I can only assume that my home computer has a key logger installed.

1EYz2DwJy2xj3o7cPtVsFPXX6C2moMrYXj now has over 50 bitcoins of mine.

Given my Bitcoin investment money was set aside for my young family, even though its not a huge amount of money I am completely gutted.

Cheers
cwerdna.



Stop using IE and OPERA .... use google chrome or firefox. Most exploits works on ie and ff. Also do not download flash "updates" you are asked to download from various sites.

But most of thieves use and exploit and traffic to build a botnet and only ie and opera can be exploited.
