For the most part, if a hacker has access to your system, they have access to whatever method you use to decrypt, so it's kind of pointless. Wouldn't fault GOM for storing passwords in plain text? Are you kidding me? Passwords are--or always should be hashed whenever a new user register. The password should NEVER be stored, and only resulting "digest" of the cryptographic hash function is stored. When a user authenticates, their input should be passed through the same hash function and compared to the hashed entry in the database. | ||

So be aware, even if you changed all your passwords, it might still happen. It took them until now to get to me. PS. No, I haven't had any strange things happen to me outside of the gom thing, and I have never been hacked before this. | ||
