Is saving your pw really that big of a deal? Doesnt that protect you against the event that someone ever installs a keystroke logger on your comp?

Anyone else just logon to FTP and breathe a sigh of relief after they saw their $$$ still there?

Also I'm glad I haven't played the last couple days, receiving fraudulent funds can be trouble too, even if you had no idea.

If the guy who stole your computer just literally donked off the money to randoms, I don't think there's a huge chance of getting it back. The cases where money gets returned seem to be where it's dumped to a specific account or a couple specific accounts. I think FTP would be in a very tough spot to just take money back from people who weren't doing wrong at the tables.

This seriously sucks, I wish some more security features would be implemented.

This situation doe seriously suck, and I do feel for the OP. I sincerely hope you get the money back. With that said, I'm not sure what FT is supposed to implement, regarding more security features?

I mean, the OP had his computer stolen, and his password saved/remembered on his computer. How can FT possibly prevent this? To suggest that they need tighter security for events such as these is absurd. Now if the OP's account had been hacked into, I would agree with you, tighter security would be needed. But in this case, I don't think FT can really implement any further measures.

As far as the keystroker reference, my advice to y'all is the following:

1. Don't surf porn [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] (if you really feel compelled, then at least do a virus scan afterwards)

2. Keep your anti-virus software up to date, and scan your computer frequently.

3. keep your anti-spyware software up to date, and scan your computer frequently.

4. Install a firewall if you don't currently have one.

5. Change your password frequently! ( I change mine weekly) and DO NOT keep it remembered or save it to your computer!

GL all, and stay safe!

Full Tilt security is a joke. PokerStars VS Full Tilt, compare the Forgot Password screen of both clients...and it goes way beyond that.
