Also, heres microsoft antispy. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
Is best to scan with more than one just to make sure. Make sure you click on options and then "full system scan" instead of smartscan when you first run it . |

It's possible someone just used your email and requested a password thing. It's pretty easy to get a hold of emails these days.

As you see, this also happened to me. I checked up what someone would need to reset your password: your email, date of birth, and the answer to your security question. The first two are pretty easy to get I guess, so you'd better make sure you have a water-tight question. Whoever went for my account took 12 guesses before giving up, assuming PlayNC send an email every time. |

No sorry. I was just amused by the image of all those attempted password resets followed by an email seemingly saying "we don't care".
I was understandably worried about the first 12 emails, >:| so I did what they said to do: email them. All I got back was the same 'default' reply they send to everyone who doesn't have a "support account", which just happens to be titled "Assistance request Denied" and sent under a different name. I'm sure all of those messages are legitimate emails from PlayNC. |

To the OP, do you have a brother or someone else who may have tried to play? It's pretty easy to have your password changed - my son was trying to log onto my game and clicked the button and changed mine. It's easy enough to change it back.
