hey i got hacked about 4 hours ago when i got home from work i could not log in. my hotmail password was the same so i couldnt get into that either. i managed to change my password on hotmail and found in my emails that i had been banned for 3 hours for spamming and my password had been reset. is there any way to change my battle net secret question/answer? i cant even remember it so i dont understand how someone managed to get it

You'll want to go over this post, make certain your system and email are both secure and fill out this form, Tubb.

It may be even better to setup a different, totally unrelated email to use for Battle.net. That would effectively change your account name.'

Don't reuse passwords between programs - and ESPECIALLY not your email and on any websites, that is very risky.
