Anyhow, I just finished my fall semester of college so I thought maybe chill and see how neopets is going for now. Is the cookie grabber issue still a big deal?
Thanks for your time, I hope you all have a great holiday.

Hey guys! I'm a returning user. I was pretty active a while back but the stupid keyloggingcookiegrabber monster pretty much drained my will to play.

So I guess the issue doesn't happen anymore.
The problem was that some people put cookie grabbers on their profile (I'm not sure on the exact detail - but in essence, it would take your cookies so if you log onto neopets with your login/password saved then it would copy that. Then whoever has that information could just go into your account and just take everything - and with neopets' "superb" security - you couldn't even find out who took it since there is no actual trade log/etc.
I thought it was a joke until it happened to me.

Cookie grabbing has nothing to do with clicking Save Password on your browser.
