- Hey Guys
Sorry I know that I am probably posting this in the wrong place but I didn't know where to post it.
I have recently had to change my Myspace address as someone hacked into my old account and am now trying to readd all of my friends. I ahve added Three Graces, Kelly and Sara but have been trying to add Joy for nearly over a month now, now I know that she has not logged in for sometime but I am finding that I am adding her one day and the next day she disappears from my friend request list???? Also when I go on to either of her pages I get a little musical sound that plays
Don't know if anyone is able to help me regarding this, I have contacted the Myspace Team and they say that the problem should not be rectified but it has not. Wondered if any of you techinical guys would be able to help me?
Hi...
I'll give you the information I have about it, and quite what I understard about MySpace...
MySpace hacked As far as I'm concerned, there's no need to start another MySpace account when this happens. You can just change your password to one that includes letters, numbers, and special characters, which will give it strength and it will be harder to hacker.
And also change some options. ie: @ privacy, change it to 'Do not show when I'm online' as hackers track passwords when ppl is online. If you are offline there is no way (I'm aware of) they can track your password, and therefor hack your account. So if they don't know when you are or aren't there, they'll suffer... :lol:
Something else you can change is that ALL your comments have to be striclty approved by you. So if any of your friends gets his/her account hacked, they can not use it to, by association, hack yours. Just like Troyans work on MSN. Also you can change settings to 'do not allow HTML', tho the HTML is funnier and gives color to the comments...
And you can also regulary change your layout. There are sites where ppl offer layouts for free, just because at certain point they make a slight change not in the code, but in the pictures the code is linked to. So that way the original code is at your 'About me' section, but the links changed, and they became open doors for many MANY viruses...
Friends requests :cheer: I know that 'Friends requests' are deleted periodically each month.... let me think...
yep, I think it's every month, and if not, then it's every 2 months...
And if @ the recipient inbox there are many pending requests, then yours will tend to drop out... Don't really know if it works like PMs (ie, olds go out faster), but I know it happens...
If it's not any of the above, you can bug Tom... :lol: I've done it quite a few times... :lol:
Sorry we can't help anymore about this...
The Sound If it's the e-card Ra mentioned, then... oops... but if it's something yelling 'OMG, No Way!'... :lol: then those are adverst at MySpace...
I don't think they have modified the snippets so they have something else in them, and therefor they cannot be 'steal' from their official MS...
So... *sigh* let's bear with the sound...
I hope it helps and if you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask...
Hugs,

PS. Can you yell or something when you read this, so we can really know that you actually saw the answer...
thanks...
