Last question: Yes, that is the logical conclusion and the only one that explains how 3 services are affected at once which is not the result of a security breach at those services.

So, in other words, if you've given someone else your password, they probabbly have it? How is it this is breaking for all those accounts, all at once, on multiple services? Did someone collect credentials via phishing across several services and over several months, and then post them all, all at once? I suspect the information seen so far is incomplete or inaccurate. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
