Nobody would like to have your account or items stolen, right? Well, I will list here some rules for that never happens to you. I'll list the rules by order of importance, from the most important to the least important, but that does not mean you do not need to follow all.
1. Never give your account to ANYONE.
99.9% of all burglaries happen because someone lent your account to someone else. And the worst is that most often those responsible for the theft are kin or trusted "friends". We are experienced and we know what we're talking about.
2. Never use your username and passwords similar to each other or with the names of yourcharacters .
It is common for people to put usernames equal to the names of his characters and guessable passwords such as myname123, 123456, etc.. Never do that. Your username must be totally different from any character name and your password must not just be different from all the rest, but also indecipherable. Use a combination of letters, numbers and symbols without any sense and indecipherable.
3. Be carefull to share another's computer, friends, cyber cafes, etc..
It is very common for people to install keyloggers to get your account and password. The only place you should feel safe is in your home! In other places I recommend always use the virtual Windows keyboard to type your password or change your password immediately after use.
4. Never make downloads of programs that may contain malwares and spywares (virus in general).
We all know programs and suspicious links that might contain virus, but even so when we really want to go there we disabled the Anti-Virus just to download the program and see if this "hacke" will really work. Turns out that most of these programs only contain keyloggers, bots to perform DDoS attacks, etc..
5. Always keep your machine protected with a good Anti-Virus, Firewall, Anti-SpyWare. Always active and functional .
6. Change your password frequently.
I would recommend everyone to change your passwords at least once every month. If you have correctly followed all the other five rules, this is probably the least important, but do not let it take the chance.
