Account secuirty

[ronplus1]

what does runescape mean if i leave my account for 5 seconds still it can be stolen? i dont get this. How can a hacker steal my account if i leave it still for a 10 seconds?

 

sorry im askign lots of questions but what do they mean by this?

 

are there players who can hack you if you keep your account still with a programe? #-o

 

just serioisly though thats scary. explain how they could pls

Perhaps they mean leaving yourself logged in whilst you attend to something away from the keyboard. This can be dangerous in a public room such as a class or library, where this time gives someone time change you pass and/or recovery questions.

 

 

 

Although 5-10 seconds may be an exageration, they may be hinting at the time it takes a perpared person to access a keylogger and install on your computer whilst you're away. This could conceivably take only a few seconds I suppose.

They mean five seconds of leaving your account logged on and leaving the computer (so your character is afk). In these 5-10 seconds, someone else could come, sit down next to your computer while you're away, and (theoretically) change your password.

 

 

 

Highly unlikely, but you never know.
