password redux (CD, security, disc)

[harry chickpea]

Might be a good time to redo your password here. Admin looking into a security issue. (I've had mine here far too long, needed to redo it anyway.)

I was wondering what the cause of the outage was, are you speculating or have some credible info?

There is a thread in the "About the forum" forum.

Well that takes all the fun out of it, I wanted to speculate...

[EDIT] Well it seems CD was being redirected to a malware site, a fairly common occurrence lately.

I used to frequent the consumerist discussion blog, but after they moved to wordpress and got hacked no less than 4 times in a month or two, I decided I could live without that site.

This is why I use LastPass. Not only is my C-D password gibberish, its only used for this site so if hackers get it, no big deal.

Ditto LastPass.
