Why did I have to change my password to be able to browse the message board today? I don't like that because I have certain passwords that I use for certain types of sites and I had to choose an entirely different one, I made a note of it, but it's a pain to have to look for it when I want to sign on.

I'm not sure why. I had to do mine the other day. You should be able to go back and change it back to what you had before following the same steps.

I had to do it too a couple of days ago, it is a pain I agree.

I've been prompted to change my password every sixty days -- twice so far since joining the board on March 1st.

I was blocked from browsing until I changed my password yesterday; the air crackled a little blue for a couple minutes, but I relented, and unlike the last time, the system worked perfectly, for the change and the activation! :D

I don't like it either, but it's a defense against the kind of hacking we had a couple of months ago.

I apologize for the inconvenience, but it really is necessary.
