Saw this over at Crossroad of Dereth (Asherons Call fan site):

Looks like a new round of account stealing trojan programs are making themselves know. Here's an account of one such situation which is really hitting Darktide hard.

Got hacked? Talk to Dariean

Sunday, March 4, 2001, 9:46:PM - Posted by Bekka Apparently numerous accounts have been hacked, when people downloaded and tried to install the program described by Azile in the entry below. Dariean, one of the victims, would like to get in touch with the other people who got hacked because, he says, he's working towards a solution. If you are one of the victims and wish to contact him, email him. Good luck in getting your accounts back, and next time you want to download a cheat program make sure that the licence agreement doesn't say that they reserve the right to hax0r your AC account. There are also reports of folks trading infected files in IRC. Never EVER accept a file you don't know without scanning it. Even then, many scaning programs may not catch these custom trojans because they hide themselves as ligetimate program functions. So always use caution when using a 3rd party application.
