Did you get an email before requesting a new password?
Someone might have used the "forgot password" link on your name.
When someone clciks this link a new password is automatically generated and sent to the account it was requested for.

No I didn't get an email before that I know of, I'm trying to say that a few days ago I was always logged in because of the "stay logged-in" checkbox, anywho just recently I got logged out and I typed my password in, and it said It's not the right one.

So you got your password back right? Cuz now you are using your account to post. If you want, I can make you a new password and you can change it once you logged in.

I've changed it already, so now it should be safe... I just want to know how they knew my password, cuzz I NEVER give my passwords away, unless I've changed it and I'm giving an old one.

yes I have a sister, but I doubt she'd ever do something like that, she's only 8 years old, and she's not allowed on the comp.

anywho I have a new password so you can do whatever you want with this thread,

Well, hackers can easily decipher it based on the things you may like, your name, any favorites you may have, or just by monitoring your posts to see how you thingk. They analyze what they see and gather the data together and make assumptions of all possibilities. So when you make a password, make sure its one that a good hacker can't figre out, based on analyzing you. Like: teh5Yezor, for instance.

You really don't have to tell anybody, if you're dealing with a good hacker, then anything is possible. Also, don't underestimate your siblings, I'm sure that their innocent, but the worse thing that you can do is be deceived =/
