Hey

I was just thinking back to when i had that problem with my Email Account with AOL.
Someone hacked my AOL Account a while back and sent the Usual Rubbish to Everyone in my Address Book.

Now I made a Few apps and Posted them on here which did include Email Password and Username within the Code, Now when you think that anyone with a bit of savvy can just decompile any application, It makes me think that could any of our Members or anyone who downloaded the file/app did just exactly that so they gained access to my AOL Account... :( Makes you think does'nt it ................

So people this is just a Heads Up = secure your apps 100% if u can

And with me i hope it was just an isolated incident and Not by people who visit and enjoy this great site.

Chris

What a coincidence! Just a few hours before, I saw your post which was many months old and now you mentioned it again!

I agree with you HH, its not good to leave your programs unprotected. These days all people think about is hacking & decompiling other people's programs. idoit;
