I've been visiting a few guides related to WoW and i was just wondering if you could get hacked by just visiting a site and not logging in or anything, thanks.

Short answer yes.

Although there are numerous ways that your account or computer can be compromise, key loggers seem to be very popular. As others here have mentioned, there are also security holes that are often times found. Make sure all your security software is up to date and practice safe web browsing.
