retrieving password-avast forum?
« on: March 23, 2008, 07:32:52 PM »
I have had my e-mail account hijacked that my account refers to so I cant request a reminder in case the hijacker gets my password is there any other way I can reclaim my password?

Did you start a new user (sanctuaryforever) because you've lost the old one password?
How do you know you have your email account hijacked?

No, it's not. You can change it into the forum profile settings.

It will be recreated when you login again at the forum.

thats the problem when I was still logged into my account due to my password being saved it kept asking for the password before I could change which e-mail account is tied to it but I dont know my password and now I'm logged out.  I cant believe I hadn't written my password down, either that or I had and cant find it
