Enough is enough, I'm sick of hearing about this.Time for Internet safety 101.

1) Have a LONG ALPHANUMERIC PASSWORD. That is, letters and numbers. Capitalise some of the letters.

2) Don't use anything obvious, like your username backwards or a pet's name you regularly discuss or anything like that. Don't make it easy for someone to randomly guess your password.

3) CHECK THE LINK YOU'RE CLICKING ON! Instead of just clicking on the link, hover over it and look at the bottom of your browser window to see where it's sending you first.

4) If you do click on a link and it asks for your username/password, question why it's asking you this first. If this is supposedly a Newgrounds site and you've just clicked the link on a Newgrounds page, it shouldn't ask for your password again. The only times the Newgrounds site will ask for your password is if you've:
a - signed out, or visited the site for the first time today and don't have your browser save the password
b - changed any details
c - cleared your internet cache.

5) Change your password regularly. If you think your account has been compromised, CHANGE IT IMMEDIATELY.

The staff/admin of the site can only help you so far if there's a problem, you have to protect yourselves and your own information too. Internet security is only as idiotproof as the dumbest idiot it's tested on at launch.

And finally, a word from our sponsors...
