Ok so back in February i downloaded a .exe file from MW3 Modding Section that claims it can edit your prestige tokens.
Stupidly I believed it , so i opened the .exe and nothing happened the file just dissapeared , later I discovered there was manifest files on a Usb plugged into the computer which couldnt be seen , i accidentally discovered them with WinRAR.
So I did a Full System Scan with my anti-virus and it found the virus and put an end to it.
But just today when looking for my .minecraft file i found a file called "keylogged" , now im not sure if this was legit or just a prank so i opened it with a hex editor when I made the shocking discovery that every website adress , every username/password I entered + every button I pressed was on the list , luckily the last entry was over 3 months ago.

So my main message is ; be cautious and watch out for viruses and don't download suspicious programs , files etc.
I also recommend an Anti-Virus , Like AVAST! , or AVG or anything.

Well don't go downloading stuff like that. It was obviously fake.

No Problem It's best to learn from others mistakes rather than your own eh?
