***IMPORTANT PASSWORD SECURITY NOTICE***
Dear Orbinauts,
As with any web site, sometimes exploits are found. Today one was found on ORBITHANGAR.COM where someone was able to gain access to the user table containing passwords. Orbithangar is down while the exploit is addressed, however there is still a remaining threat for some users.
PASSWORDS COMPROMISED:
If you registered an account on Orbithangar using a hotmail email address BEFORE the user accounts were merged with O-F, then your password is likely compromised. If you are using the same password here on Orbiter-Forum (or any other website on the internet) which you were using on Orbithangar, then you should change your password every where it is used. Just to be clear, the only accounts affected are those which registered at Orbithangar using a hotmail email address before the accounts were merged with O-F. If you have re-used your Orbithangar password anywhere on the internet, then it should be changed as it is compromised.
We sincerely apologize for this issue, but assure you we are working hard to quickly address the problem. The user accounts who were specifically affected will be notified by email shortly.
Kind Regards,
O-F Staff
