Just to be correct here, keyloggers can be sent via addons. Anything you download from the internet can have something added onto it, especially a zipped archive of UI files. Also, there are plenty of legitimate looking websites that offer UI installation EXE files which could very well be a keylogger. Also, it would not surprise me that someone would download a UI file that has a readme file that says click UI.EXE which then isntalls a keylogger of some sort.

Also, if I had a penny for every time someone states they found a Chinese gold farmer/hacker by sending them a tell and they replied in Chinese, I would be a millionaire. Chinese gold farmers/hackers don't reply to tells written in ENGLISH letters and have no reason to use your characters.

I have no doubt the account was hacked, but #2 is probably just grasping for straws on who did it and why. The real warning #2 should give is: "Don't download shit from the Internet if you have no idea how to run anti-virus/anti-malware, or firewalls properly." It amazes me that people think they can just use "trusted" websites and be safe. Every website on the Internet is susceptible to hacks. Cyber criminals have long given up on trying to get you to visit their websites, they just hack legitimate websites and snag unsuspecting victims that way.
