Hacked! :@
So i was playing on MW2 earlier, and started arguing with a guy on my team (as you do) and he said "Just you wait! you wont have xbox for much longer..." so i was like "yeah what ever. now f*** off" and that was that... So about half hour later, I got disconnected from xbox live... I didnt think anything of it, tried to connect again and couldnt... So I started to panic and i had a message saying my xbox gamertag/password had been changed. And thats when i realised i'd been hacked... Soooo angry! And because my misses' email is connected to my account, they went onto her email address and deleted it. So i had to QUICKLY block my debit card because that was on there - QUICKLY make a new email and password for my misses' facebook... And then have the guts to actually tell the misses lol... Oh well, atleast I can use this oppertunity to spend more time with the misses, car and dog  AND NEVER ARGUE OVER XBOX LIVE! coz i quit

This sounds far fetched, hacking is 80% pure luck, and is even more so over the Xbox or PS3. Where any of your passwords easy to guess?

Yeah they were... And im being honest. gamertag was JTV 17, Why would i bother wasting my time lying about it  i dont know how they done it, but in all fairness, I was stupidly in love with xbox live... So its kinda a good thing... Can people please add JTV 17 and see if its been deleted or see if they're using it please

Any password under 14 characters can be cracked very easily. Ideally any password you use needs to be over 16 characters long, contain special characters, a capital, number and not be a word in either the english or a foreign dictionary.

You'd be surprised.
All user controlled passwords for windows are saved in the .SAM file, which can be de-crypted, and how many people save their passwords in word docs or even to the cookies...
