What does he have? besides the ability to post as tonerman?
Anything else I should be concerned about?
Hypothetically, if you used your FT password on any other sites they could be compromised as well. Independent of your FT password, if your security patches and virus scanners are not up-to-date your personal computer could be compromised and anything on it made available to a 3rd party. Not to mention it could be turned into a zombie machine and used to send spam or attack another system at the command of another.
Unlikely, to be sure, but possible.
You are current with Windows updates? Assuming you are running Windows, but all OSs have the problem to some degree.
