being an it geek i have allways used different passwords for all things of importance e.g accounts with admin access etc.

what most dont realise is that the poeple who own/run forums can retrieve a users password if they know how to open up the correct table and extract the data.

I suspect the attack was from a person that had full access to another forum database to extract the password that chris used. unfortunatly chris's password was the same on all forums and unfortunatly on this forum it was an admin account.
