Its me again :). So yeah, ill be talking account safety and hack.
What is hack?
Hack has several related meanings in the technology and computer science fields. It may refer to a clever or quick fix to a computer program problem, or to what may be perceived to be a clumsy or inelegant (but usually relatively quick) solution to a problem.
How do they hack?
You might think that your account if safe cause your password’s tricky, but hackers aren’t that stupid. No, they go and try to answer your security question. Usualy you would put your favorite movie, moms name, old school, etc.etc.etc
How to ensure my account safety?
Two of the most popular programs are MSN ( Windows Live Messenger) and Facebook . It would be better to put something unrelated to your security question. Another great way is to place a 2 digit number behind your security question, as it would add a 79% chance of your account being safe ( excluding 10-90 and 11-99 ).Never tell anyone your password/ username, it might not be him / her who hacked it but their friend/relative. Besides, it doesn't bare any benefits to you, it just increases risk towards your account.
History of hack
The term "hack" was first used by US university computing center staff in the mid-1960s. The context determined whether the complimentary or derogatory meanings were implied. Phrases such as "ugly hack" or "quick hack" generally referred to the latter meaning; phrases such as "cool hack" or "neat hack", to the former. In modern computer programming, a "hack" can refer to a solution or method which functions correctly but which is "ugly" in its concept, which works outside the accepted structures and norms of the environment, or which is not easily extendable or maintainable.
