Default Suspicious Activity

This could be a fluke, just thought I would bring it up to everyone's attention. I just logged in P99 for the first time in a while. My in-game login is the same as my Steam info (which is an error on my part). Within an hour of logging into P99 I received a Steam alert that someone attempted logging in to my Steam account from a foreign IP address. First time I've ever received an alert like this so I'm a little skeptical now.

That is not p99 files related,. I strongly suggest you run antivirus, anti malware, anti spyware asap.
Change your passwords afterwards. If what you posted is true, I'd be sketched but I know for a fact it's not project 1999's fault.

Also turn on the steam authentication code email thing.

I have the Steam Guard authentication enabled so they weren't able to gain access to the account. Just thought it was unusual based on the timing and these being the only 2 accounts I have that share username/password. I'm sure it's just a coincidence just didn't want to neglect bringing it to someone's attention incase there is an actual issue.

Where did you get your copy of the Titanium client?

Why in the world do you have two accounts with the same login credentials? That is asking for problems.

You should consider formatting your computer.

In the meantime, setup 2-factor authentication on any accounts you consider critical (email, bank, etc.)
