What is the difference between phishing and hacking?
with regard to myspace? For instance. someone "got into" my myspace from out the the cyberworld (YES, I CHANGED MY PASSWORD AND ALL IS OK NOW) but they ended up friending 8 pages of people through my page that I had to delete 1 by 1. THEN turns out they put a "code" on my page that kept giving me a pop-up for windows update thing (I have MAC/no windows)...I couldn't get rid of it. Had to delete all my codes. Was this hacking or phishing? And what is the PURPOSE of someone doing this?

What is the difference between phishing and hacking?It is phising, common practice of using forms to make you fill out, use memory from your computer, keylog the keys you type in, put malicious code inside the HTML itself, if your anti-virus doesn't script-scan, and copy all information, false website perpatrator, trojan-infection inside the computer.
Usually by scams,scums,hackers that make porn websites, or somehow got your data threw a popular website.
Hacking is different because it is engaging in a battle, or data-modifying, because they acutually try to do something, not just leave their traps on websites, downloads. And sometimes it can be A DoS Denial of service attack or between fire wall encryption leak protection and Force Brutal Attack.
The purpose is to use your credit card, or whatever like revoke your driver license, steal your account, while hacking is about information and infection. Similar but different.
