except that when you are hacked, your email password gets changed with your windows live. So you wont be getting that email.

Hypothermo was on the Bungie weekly update!

Please send me a message on how!

If I may ask, could you post some ways to prevent the hack in the first place? It'd be even more helpful! Thank you!


These are ways to prevent getting hacked and ways that help to get unhacked

The one that helps pervent it

1: Make sure that you password says strong on the strength meter, to check if it is then go to your email and click options, after you click options it will go to a list of what you can do with your account then click on the one that says " view and edit your personal information ". Next it will go to another page where it will give you a few options, click the one that says "Password: ************* Change" then a little window will appear in the screen type in the password your still using where it says "type new password". Type it in and it will tell you what the strength of it is.

The ones that help get it back

2:Make sure you have an alternate email, theres still a chance that they haven't changed it yet. Only if you discovered it was hacked within a few minutes -an hour.

3:Memorize all your answers to the questions, such as your secret question, the place you live, etc...

I've been hacked before but luckily it was an incompetent hacker who didn't change my password, so I recovered it and changed my password.

Thanks for the thread, but it's completely useless to me because I would give up the second I can't sign into my XBox Live account =). Thanks for the very helpful and easy to use guide.

Useful for the users
Useless for the lazy.

What's YOUR Zombie Plan?

Congratulations!
This is the first actually helpful thread I have seen all day.
The rest are usually crazy polls and things people posted because they were bored.
Anyway, well done on actually going out of your way to write this up.

ok so you now have coverd what to do if your gamertag/windows live id gets hacked. But what about your modem?? "Syfec" This is the gamertag of someone that said if i join his room he can get my ip address the hack my modem and ban me from XBL. I think he was talking out of his ass but i am not sure. Does anybody know if this can be done and if so how can stop if from happening??? If it can be done, remember this gamertag "Syfec" He said he can do it.

  • 06.18.2008 5:58 AM PDT

well, anybody know if your modem can get hacked?
