Are there the hackers or crackers can hack  www.facebook.com   or mail.yahoo.com or mail.google.com..? I'm not a hacker but  in my opinion that,almost impossible to hack the facebook provider,  or till today facebook dot com can not be hacked yet ,by lamers  from anywhere.We've been hacked are caused only from negligence  and careless behavior by using   email Account Anyway, to overcome the Facebook hacking problems,  the Facebook team gave section especially the handling  the facebook account that was hacked . there the users  could send the message to Face book admin about the problem, including scam,hacking,phising,facebook hacking prevention tips and other. Facebook hacking software like facebook-freezer, in the fact that have been circulating in the internet now ,and very easy to get or use this tool ,Although facebook-freezer just a stupid cracker's tool, but annoying enough. Fake login ,It's most likely a cracker doing what is known as phishing. You most likely were told, at one point or another to re-enter your password for some reason, right? If so this was a page the cracker made to look like the previous page, but that was actually a page that sent him/her the information that you typed in. Never type in a password after already having logged in and get a phishing filter from somewhere like Norton, becauase they can, and most likely will, try to do it again. In another fact ,about the internet and identity,The internet is a shapeless world where identities are not only dynamic but can’t ever be verified with certainty. As a result, its easily possible to be one person one moment, then another person the next moment. This is particularly true when using internet based social networking sites like Facebook (and the rest). Humans have a natural tendency to trust each other. If one human being can provide another human with "something sufficient' then trust is earned. That "something sufficient" can be a face to face meeting but it doesn’t always need to be. So,the people that have been targeted by hackers could easily exploited during their (hackers)social attacks trusted ,coz they (people) thought hakers worked for the same company as them (people).

This could put you in big trouble especially if you do not have any other OS configured for dual boot and this will prevent you from accessing your files as well. But there are free password recovery tools which can be used even if you do not have access to Windows. So here is a list of top 3 password recovery tools. Although there were quite a few others as well, we have covered only tools which are also compatible with Windows 7.

Ophcrack- This is one of the best and top rated password recovery tools for Windows. Ophcrack is fast and easy to use even for a user with basic Windows skills. It works well with Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP and does not require any installation. The only downside of this tool is that you need to download the Live CD ISO (496MB for 7/Vista and 415MB XP).
