I decide it was time to write a small guide on things to help yourself from losing your password.
Tribalwars doesn't officially sponsor any of the programs mentioned below but these are safe and handy for helping you keep your computer safe for FREE.
I personally use these and two other programs I bought. Most computers come with an automatic firewall, which should NEVER be turned off.
Step 1:
Go to http://www.filehippo.com/ and download under anti-virus Avast! Home Edition 4.8.1296,(it will not work properly if you do not restart when it asks you to), then you want to download Spybot Search & Destroy 1.6.1.41 Beta located under anti-spyware & under Most popular downloads download CCleaner 2.15.815.
There are a few comparable programs to Spybot S&D, a few have been mentioned here in this topic, just make sure what you use, works.
Step 2:
Once those 3 are downloaded, you want to run CCleaner first. You want to " Run cleaner" over Windows and Applications, allow it to free up the space you have full of junk. Then go to registry and scan for issues. I personally delete all found issues once its done running.
Step 3:
Open up SpyBot Search and Destroy, first you want to go to Update and download all known updates, mainly the rules of finding new viruses need to be downloaded, the program wont run without these done. Then go to Immunize, run this tool twice. Once that is done, go to Search and destroy and check for all problems, this may take a while. Once the scan is 100% done you want to fix all selected issues. Running this step once a week is advisable.
Step 4:
Avast will need you to restart your computer to run properly. I don't use this to scan my computer, its just another backup firewall to keep my computer and files safe. If you see a blue sphere with an a in it circling in the bottom right corner of your computer, the firewall is on, there may be a second circle with an I in it, you can right click it and merge the two together, it saves space.
Note: This is just my personal guide to help you keep your account safe. Whether you use it or not, these have been beneficial for me in the past and present, and its what I tell all players to do when they also lose their password. This guide works for people who use Windows XP and Vista.
On top of this, I suggest changing your password every 2-3 months, and making sure its easy to remember for you but hard to guess for others.
