My user name has been changed without my permission.

[eram]

I have just posted a reply to a question and my user name has come up as "eram". My usual name is Mortartube. I am assuming I may have been hacked. I am using Firefox. Any suggestions?

[eram]

I posted under the "Aeroplane wings" question earlier in this section and had my original name then.

You don't have someone else using the computer that uses AB do you?

They might have clicked the remember me on this computer button.

Did you actually log in?

Log out and in manually and see what happens

[Mortartube]

Nobody else uses my computer. I have re logged in so here goes.

[Mortartube]

Woohoo, I'm back. Thank you.
