Ways to help protect your game accounts
In today's world it is essential that all of us follow a set of guidelines to ensure our game accounts stay safe and away from common hackers or scammers (people set out to make your life a complete misery).

1. Never share your account details!
A lot of players today tend to share their account details (i.e. username, password, secret question, etc), whether they are sharing with close relatives or distant friends. Sharing information like this is risky business, because it doesn't take long before your details become well known across the general community.
This includes sharing your information with other parties such as gold companies or power-leveling services.

2. Install a Virus Scanner and Spy-Ware Protection Software!
The internet can be friendly at times, but it also has a lot of dangerous pitfalls - one of which is corrupted downloads or files containing illegal data. It is highly recommended that you install some form of protection software which can help detect viruses or spy-ware through emails, web-browsers and downloaded files.
If you do not have the time or money to search for some, you can always download some fantastic free versions which do a great job at protecting your computer.

3.Avoid using third-party applications while in-game!
Using third party applications while playing online games can sometimes place a flag against your account ID or IP address, since these applications are constantly sending packets of information from one server to another. Examples include; bots, scripts or custom-made hacks. Even though your virus scanner fails to detect any corrupt data, these applications still pass on packets of information to additional parties - putting your account at serious risk!
