Hi!I'm stunned!
A friend of mine emailed me today with information that my name was in one "crack" file. I have now downloaded the same archive, UltraISO.v7.2.2.ME.Build.870.ENG.Retail.rar. As he said in the file sn.txt I find my name, AND my own personal key for that product. How on earth can this be so? I always keeps my keys private, and have not shared them with anyone. How is it then possible that it can be in this archive?
I use several layers of firewalls. One is in a unit called D-link DI-804V, and the next is in Norton Internet Security witch is always updated with latest updates. It must have been som kind of break in, but how on earth has this been done? I'm quite afraid of what else they might have stolen aswell. Hope that anyone here will be kind enough to email me or leave a message if my name is showing up in any other "cracks". If anyone wonders my name is Trond Larsen, and I will be wery thankfull for any help. Any help of how to discover and stop further hacking will also be nice.
Regards Trond Larsen

I dont think your pc has been hacked. It could have been stolen several other ways:- From the creator (ezbsys)
- sniffed
- etc.
So don't worry.... but I would check for keyloggers, trojans etc. on my pc.
