Default Re: WinHoldem cheaters foiled

I welcome the crack down on those cheaters.

I was surprised that Party can take screen shots however. I do not know enough of computers and Internet, but if they are able to take screen shots and are able to write on your hard drive they could also be able to read your hard drive. I have all my passwords stored in a text file which probably isn't such a great idea anyway.

Any binary can read/write and take screen shots. They can do a lot more than that if they want. Sadly your passwords get cached a lot of the time. I keep no passwords on my computer but I would not be surprised if some of mine were cached in my computer some where. This has been a fact of like since the dawn of computers so its no big revelation. Your just need to be careful and know where all of your software came from.
