Yes, "Torret," of course. Why did I not think of that?

this story is nothing but a balloon filled with hot air.

"the exploit involved redirecting attempts to access the forums to another site that would request log-in information"

this is the problem with most web users. people do not pay enough attention to what is happening, and blindly fill in web forms. pinning this on only torrent based sites, does not paint the whole picture. then again, I can't find a single article on this website that does just that, give you the full story. tricking people into giving away sensitive information can be done/is done under many different disguises. bestofmedia is an oxymoron.

Social Networking is the devil! If it wasn't for Facebook I would never have been found by entering my name into Google Search, after 15 years or anonymity lol kicked myself on the foot on that one.
