Password update
The new software is asking for a new password. I found out you can keep your old one. Just put it in the "form" in three places
If you already changed it, but want your old password back, go to the "User CP" link at the top of the page, then "Edit Email and Password", and you can change it there.
What kind of computer security is that? Dood!Originally Posted by FW

No need for a password change here. Mac using Safari 4.0.4. Just like always it logged me in automatically remembering my username and password, and took me straight to the forums page.

Hmmm... same here I and I am running the much less exotic Windows Vista and IE.
Same that I use at my desktop. But I'm on my PC laptop and it didn't prompt me, either.
I think 4 years have gone by since FW last changed his password, and so the system is thinking, hmmm, maybe about time.....
It is relative to when you first logged into the new software, so YOUR time is coming
As it should!It is relative to when you first logged into the new software, so YOUR time is coming
Whatever this system uses, it can't be nearly so onerous than at work where I between my office and my customer's, I have *7* computer network accounts! And they don't all have the same requirements. I can't make the passwords the same between them. Add those to the 30 or so accounts I have in the outside world--oy vey!
But *some* minimal amount of security is a good idea.

We have the same security issues. Several different vendors who created various applications and for reasons that totally escape me no seemd to be abel to specifcy or agree on the same password protocols in terms of number of characters and combinations of upper and lower case, numbers and special characters. So most people have a list of passwords written down near the computer which sort of defeats the whole purpose. I am pretty sure the janitor could hack into half the computers on the floor even if he or she could not even read English.As it should!
