eAthena stores passwords in text files. What happened was that you used the same password as you do on the official server and as soon as you registered on his server he closed it and looked at your password. Really, this is your fault for using the same password on a private server.

EDIT- You probably had an easy to guess password then. Avoid using things such as dictionary words. Try using secret codes and such only you can remember.

Listen kid, there are programs called brute forcers. They are programs that input dictionary words very rapidly into a log in window. That is how your account was cracked.

Also, names are infact dictionary words. It's either that or you have a virus/trojan horse/keylogger on your computer that stole your password as you entered it into the window. I'd advise you to run an Anti-Virus scan.

EDIT- Run an Anti-Spyware scan aswell. Anti-Viruses and Anti-Spyware programs are not the same thing unless you have Norton 2008 or Kaspersky 2008.

You probably wont be able to.

Using the same password for multiple things is dangerous.
