0 Griffin Ceawlin Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Change your password to a secure one. Use upper and lower case letters, throw in some numbers, etc. Don't use anything that you would find in a dictionary. And then tell him to go right ahead and try.

0 Juniper Ellisson Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Right-click on their avatar and select Report. File the Report completely (make sure you fill it in with details) and Linden Labs will take care of it. You should get an e-mail you have sucessfully sent an Abuse Report. I would also consider Blocking the avatar, again right-click and choose Block this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Cinnamon Lohner Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Same way you protect yourself on any website. Harden your password. Include upper and lower case letters along with numbers and symbols. Don't give your password to other people and don't use anything that is easy to guess. Use a valid, reliable viewer from a known source. Not saying you shouldn't use a third party viewer. Just make sure you download it directly from the creator and that it is on the TPV approved list. Beyond that, ignore the person. Don't give them a reason to want to hack you. Hang out somewhere else. --Cinn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
