well we dont usually reset anyones passkeys, unless they are just seeding 100+ torrents at once.
but on the odd occasion, accounts do get hacked, mind you this could have been a trade that backfired on them as well. or someone uploads their torrent with their passkey in onto a torrent link site, and they end up downloading 300gig of an nds game lol
but like i said its very rarely users get their passkeys reset, and never while they are actually downloading a torrent/s
its true.. one time I reset my passkey on a site but forgot I was downloading something! but the download finished like normal.
so that is diffidently a possibility;)

Which in turn is usually considered as cheating so be careful ppl, that such accidents don't happen often or you might be in trouble..
