That doesn't necessarily mean your Amiga was hacked. In fact, its quite
unlikely as the hacker would have to know where abouts on your Amiga the ISP
details were stored, which means they would have to be an Amiga owner.
It was probably a hacker hacking the main BTinternet accounts database. It
could just be that your friend found out your password somehow (maybe he
accessed your Amiga at your house?) and decided to play a trick on you.
Whichever it was, its got me concerned now...
Cheers,
GazChap, off to search for his password on Google!
