Account Management Passwords?

[tinnel]

Help! This evening I suddenly could not log on to my account management. I have the userid/password cached (I know, I know...) and it worked last time I logged in. Now it says my username or password is invalid. I used the "forgotten password" and did manage to get in. Now I'm trying to set my password back to what it was, and the system tells me the password doesn't meet the minimum password requirements. Well, it did when I set it!!! So, I understand having minimum requirements, but did the system actually invalidate all passwords that previously existed and didn't meet the requirements? What a pain.

yes.. JPC is trying to better improve security with the client section and all previous passwords had been wiped clean... they also now require that the passwords meet certain specifications and also be changed every couple of weeks (i think)... let me find that thread and ill link it
