SRL Archive - Discussions and Debates

Just logged in and noticed this in the last logged in from box:

nastazia-PC

anyone know what this means? Its odd there is no IP address here…

That is weird, never seen that before. All I can think of is an edit made to your host file on your PC.

if your referring to the hosts file saved in system32>drivers>etc I just checked it and there are no changes there

Kyle is right, my host file is 'bighairypenis.epicbot.rarebot.com'

:]

Yeah, that's the one I'm talking about :p That's not an IP for sure, I honestly don't have a clue. Anything missing?

Then I'm guessing you got hacked?

nothing missing. Not even moved spaces :/

bank pin is still in place, no attempt has been made to remove it.

When the RS website is back up I think I will post in the tech help and see what it means.

That is strange, are you on a wireless connection? I've noticed that if I don't change my host file, it defaults to "Last logged in from: myrouter". That could be the case.

I'm on a wired connection. Played from this flat for almost a year now and its never done anything unusual before

Hmm, that is strange. Well if nothing is missing or attacked, then I guess you're fine :p The forums are up, just slow.

I don't bot on this account don't worry.

Thanks for the link kyle, although you weren't joking it is extremely slow.

EDIT: got a reply on the official forums:

Hi *********

I've checked the account and there are a couple of anomalous accesses on the account but nothing conclusive. It will be worth going through the Account Security Guide and making sure that you have all of your defenses in place, as well as going through the Computer Security Guide to make sure your computer is secure.

If you can see nothing wrong with your account then there is no need to panic but it will be worth getting everything in place to make sure it doesn't happen again.

changed my password and guess I will leave it at that

My guess would be a local LAN PC logged in.

I saw a video about this a few days ago. You just change a line of text in system 32.
