Also about the fact to be very careful of who one may contact--some instant messaging websites only use a computer-to-computer connection and the other person can be a hacker willing to steal your information or wreak havoc in many other ways via the internet and networking in general. If someone is paranoid about that and if you're also reading this, look into getting a VPN or proxy server so that you're always protected and your privacy is a little more concealed. So that if someone does attack you, they will be attacking the proxy server, instead of finding your IP address and then your main router to which they can do a service denial attack ( DDoS ) and you can be offline for hours or days.

Also depends on who you associate with, but chances are you'll never find a hacker around a website such as this. They're usually on websites or servers that involve gaming.
