| There’s been a lot of forum posts around the community involving hacked accounts. It seems that somepage may have been hacked and had some malicious scripts added to its pages. People that have accessed somepage have reported that their accounts have been stolen.
For the time being I’d recommend staying away from the FFXI somepage website. Also make sure your anti-virus software is up to date. If you’ve gotten any weird pop ups on any of the FFXI community sites recently it also wouldn’t hurt to change your POL password.
UPDATE: Killing Ifrit and FFXIAH have been reported to have ActiveX controls wanting to be downloaded. Do NOT download them. They may contain possible key logging software.
It seems that this virus forces you to re-type your FFXI password. So save your passwords on the log in screen and if it asks you to type it in after that, make sure to run a virus scan. | |
