Talk:Neopets

Ok, I have seen several sites that people have said that they can hack into, or get someone elses password is this true can they do this?

Apparently so. THey do this by bypassig the section of the code which prevents people from using JavaScript. Then they put something in their page called a 'Cookie Grabber' A Cookie is an item of data which your computer uses to store data in, such as passwords. They grap the Neoepts Cookies and then they will ahve your password. It is not confirmed that this is ultimately possible, but to be safe, only visit customizable pages if needed. -Matt 07:41, 30 Dec 2005 (CST)

it's possible

yes, i've heard it's true, but don't let that stop you from playing the website in fear. during times of "cookie grabbing panic", be sure to refrain from untrustworthy cutomizable pages. Even better, you can use the Mozilla Firefox Browser for more protection as well.

more information on attacks and protection on the PinkPT Forums (this comes to mind as well). --Jacob 11:31, 1 Mar 2006 (CST)
