Loc

Normally called by its short name, loc is a special script that is automatically created when a user is initialised, and can be used to breach the associated user. A loc cannot be deleted. Usually, when accessing a loc, you will be presented by locks. On a tier 1 NPC, solving all locks will cause it to pop. With other locs you will have to manually transfer GC and upgrades using an upgrade. You can use  to find your own loc.

Like any other script, locs are made up of 2 parts, the user name, series of characters, both separated by a dot, for example. NPC locs are usually distinguished by starting with words like "abandoned", "unidentified" and "unknown", however be careful that this isn't a regular player script posing as a loc.

Some people believe that once your loc has been leaked it's game over, this is not the case. If you are a new player for example, you probably have nothing worth stealing.
