[deus]

is it possible for some1 to get a program or somthing that steals account passwords?

[jedimaster86]

isn't that the brute forcer thingy? i think that thing can find passwords, but i hear it may take a long time for it to do so.

[Siluru]

yes a brute forcer can, i believe it inputs every possible word password *like every word in dictionary* or something like that i dont know ... but theres also the keylogger

[Syn3rgy]

keylogger logs every key stroke you push, brute forcer tries words from a text document, those words must be input manually or u can download the text files ont he internet and stuff but it tries all the passwords, it takes a very long time and plus if u try more then three times and get it wrong, u can suspended for that day

***ity brute is the name of it and its very effective lol

bruteforce is secretly used u wont be able to find unless an idiot gets a hoild of it

[BlindMansTicket]

In which case they couldn't find out how to work it since they are, as you said, an idiot.

I've seen it used before.

also brute forcer tries around a very large amount of possible passwords a minute (around over 600 or so) making it take a short time. if it uses words from the dictionary then it would be logical to make your password a combination of words or numbers
