Yes!
A very long time ago, someone must have guessed my (very EASY) password and logged into my account and then changed the password so I wouldn't know what to put in while trying to log in.
I couldn't really get too upset over it because my password was the same as my username, lol.
My password is long and strong, so a hacker would have to attack the site itself if they want to use my account.
That said, I doubt the security is very strong on this site, so someone with enough determination could possibly have their way around here.
It's just that I don't think there is any real benefit to sufficiently motivate a hacker to attempt it in the first place.
If someone has something personal against you, he could easily intercept the connection and use your account as he wishes.
I suppose anything can really. They make special viruses to do this sort of thing. I am sure someone smart enough could hack you if your password is difficult or not. In fact I had viruses on my computer that upon being removed came up as "password stealer".
It can happen if you have a super-easy password, if you give your password out, or if you are just unlucky.
I think so, I really don't know what happened to mine but I've had suspicions
If you do something stupid like keep logged in to a computer that others have access to or give out your password.
