people use it all over almost all the big games (i.e. WoW, GW, Everquest, SWGalaxies, etc.)
if there was a way to hack your account when using it, people wouldn't use it.

It is a separate program from Guild Wars. They run separately, but at the same time. They do not interact with each other.

This shows that they are two separate programs.

Used to. Until someone brought me a Ventrilo server.

1. Faster messages sent, almost exact timing. Perfect for spiking.
2. You can adjust the output of others if they're too loud/quiet.
3. Smaller interface.

It's better.

Who is ventilo? Ahhh, must be an NPC. Is he a collector or a materials crafter?

I use to use TeamSpeak all the time but it had alot of problems, alot of static, alot of sound lag, alot of echo, (and yes we tried all the suggestions to fix such things). Anyway tried Vent and have never looked back. Vent just gives us crisp clear communication, no problems at all.

@OP -- No they can not.

Been there done that also

Roger Wilco
Battlecom
Gamevoice
Teamsound
Xfire
Skype
msn and yahoo messenger

and a few more i have forgotten, thus you see the problem of free choice, we all choose differently.

Special thanks to Roger Wilko that introduced me to voip till they sold out to gamespy they were great.

Gamevoice for letting me play games by voice commands

edit
oops forgot the original question
Your biggest dangers of losing your account would be letting another person gain access to your computer or password or a keylogger program on your system
