Change your password here to something way different

What makes you think you are being hacked?

Hmm, change your password. It's extremely unlikely that someone has hacked your account, more likely one of your friends or family (or someone else who knows your password) has logged in as you.

Off topic, but why do you have my Santa character in your advert for your game? (in your signature) You never asked me to use it at all.

Again off topic, but rather than needing to ask, he should give credit in the signature as well as the game, IMO (permission isn't required, while credit is)

The Santa is featured in the game so…yeah.

Very well, I think modifying a graphic and providing credit in a game is enough but I don't have a problem with adding a credit in the signature as well.

Woah, let's keep the topic on track! Btw, change your password! If you have anyone who can turn on your computer in your family, it's probably them.

A weak password is possibly the thing. Here is tips from Norton Security:

A strong password has the following characteristics:
At least 8 characters
At least 1 capital letter
At least 1 lowercase letter
At least 2 numerals(0 to 9)
At least one symbol (like !@#$%^&*-=_+ , etc.)
A long password is more secure. To maintain password security, you should change your password on a regular basis.

And if you want to test the strength of your password I recommend this site

No it's not. This shows the best way to make a password:

It's 3 days versus 550 years. You choose.

The xkcd comic means you should choose a long password composed of some words that don't make much sense together, but are relatively easy to remember. In this case, “correcthorsebatterystaple” is shown as a good password because it's easy to remember but hard to guess since it's so long.

$(".box-head")[0].textContent = "committing AT crimes since $whenever"

I think that you are being invaded by hackers. Here are some ways to solve the problem:
1. Choose a way-complicated password with not just letters, but numbers and symbols, too.
2. Tell the Scratch Team. Paddle2See*, Harakou*, Cheddargirl*, and Lightnin* are some Scratch Team members.
3. Did you tell anyone on Scratch your username- even your best Scratch friend? They could have logged in on your account!

I hope the hacker is found soon, but in the meantime, try these three solutions/questions. Hope this helped!

Telling your username literally can't do anything wrong. That's public so anyone could figure it out. The password is what you have to worry about. And by the way Lightnin resigned from Scratch a while ago to go on to bigger things.

@ScrathSquad , what don't you understand? Just squish 4 words together and you have an extremely secure password. Exponentially better than the “fs#2190@3qar3” kinds of passwords.

Im not sure if that is a pretty strong password… Weak one in fact…
