Someone could possibly hack your MEW account when you log in to a phishing site, make sure you bookmark the correct website to prevent hackers from getting into your account. And if ever you exposed or mistakenly give out your private keys then, I think you are not careful enough to make sure or double checked if what you gave out is your personal keys; the only prevention you could probably do is before submitting anything that requires your wallet address, read them a couple of times before entering you addresses.

1. The things that a hacker can do to expose your password and private key is by seeing it directly, Opening and getting it directly on where you hide and store it, using key loggers to get your private key and password in record and by logging in your private key and password on their site which are popular strategy of hackers nowadays the "pishing". These are the methods that are commonly and can be used by hackers to hack your account.
2. What you did wrong to accidentally expose your password or private key is that you carelessly handled your private key, you let your guard down and give them the opening to hack you, you didn't hide and store your private key carefully and You've been a victim of some pishing site.
3. You can avoid such problem if you carefully handle, store and secure your private keys and password at safe place like on your personal computer and put it in hidden files to be more secure. You should also dt the right ouble check the URL of the site where you gonna log in your private keys and password or better bookmark the secure site to assure that you are on the right and safe site.
4. Its very Hard to hack MEW, Because it has a high security. It is because of their unique and long private keys that are been given on one account per one wallet. This private key compose of 64 characters in the range 0-9 or A-F and thats why its hard for a hacker to guess or pin point the right code or private key for such wallet. Even you use some application that generates different and random private keys you can't easily hacked such wallet because there are lots of them, I may say that if there are a million users of MEW there are still a Billion of MEW account that are not being use, the probability that ones wallet can hack is 1 / 1,000,000 / 1,000,000,000 so i may say that MEW has tough security.
tips from me, bookmark myetherwallet, check the site address correctly before going into myetherwallet and do not click any links you do not know the source. always routinely scan your pc or laptop with antivirus.
