Omg, someone cleared 3 of my accounts....

I used 256bit keys generated by Keepass 2. I am using  NRS 0.5.8 that installed today and downloaded from nxtcrypto.org. I am using Windows 7 Professional and am running Avira and Microsoft Security Essentials.

The NXT was transferred about half an hour ago, also while i was forging.

My PC was running unlocked but i can be 99.99% sure that no one had access to it physically. So I don't really know how this happend?!? It can't be bruteforce right?
My accounts:
8423671173148912884   107,217
12345678612257264594   71
13486646175575465553   998
The NXT are now in this account:
696356957947686421 Balance Total    :   108,286 NXT

Fuck me...

Btw the password of the third account was for example: af5c73ca7cf5f25ffa3b6b1689f40aaf60fd040b0de298c1ca661f8602d38311

Any chance of seeing these NXT again? Sad

This is not a fully secure password. This looks very much like a Hex number. Only lower case a to f and Numbers. Something like that, even as long as it is, is cracked rather fast.

It seems someone out there is brute forcing with number chains.

I had an account which had another rather serious flaw in choice of password. It was luckily not hacked.

There is no way this can be right. If that was a true random hex number with that many digits there is no way it could be cracked easily. Can someone else input on this?

Keypass is legitimate. I have been using it for a very long time. It would not have generated the example that was given. Keypass is much more random.

I post on page 1000 from dairy queen, go back to the hotel, get up at zero dark thirty to go to the airport and spend the day in threee different jets getting home, check this thread, and 55 pages later everything is total bat crap crazy.  

Hell yeah on getting listed at last on a first tier exchange and a 100 % price rise.  

But this latest "somebody got my NXT" has pegged my paranoia needle again.  As far as I am concerned we have yet to get to the bottom of a single incident here even tho we tarred and feathered EpicThomas.  Something is STILL going on and it is bad.

I will say this again and again until I get Dev concurrence.  WE NEED TO IMPLEMENT AN OPTION TO ISSUE AN ACCOUNT FREEZE CODE BLOCKING OUTGOING NXT TRANSFERS THAT GETS CARRIED ALONG IN THE BLOCKCHAIN AS A MESSAGE UNTIL RESCENDED BY THE ACCOUNT OWNER VIA A SECOND DIFFERENT PASSWORD.

More later I gotta unpack and get caught up at home after being gone two weeks.  GO NXT!!!
