Hey Guys

Last week we had a breach on the OCC forums. From what we have found out we were one of 500 sites that were targeted.

The person that did it really didn't do any damage, but we know how he got it and we have corrected the issue.

One thing I do want to point out, is if you are going to use the the same Username on multiple sites make sure you do not use the same password. OCC does its best to keep our security and patches up to date, where as other sites may not, but there is so much software available now a hacker can easily get your login info and can try accessing other sites you maybe on.

So on that note, I am asking you guys to change your password just to be safe, so far we have not anything happen but I would rather be safe then sorry.

Thanks

Dave

:withstupid:

I don't remember mine anymore either. :lol:

On the plus side, I don't think I use the password anywhere else, if I did, I would probably know it.

Actually for anyone that doesn't remember their password, like myself, but has their browser remember it, it will be in the "current password" box on the change password page.
