I just got into someone elses account via the RSS Feed. I did reset their password (actually to protect them). I emailed it to them immediately, but the email bounced back as invalid. I didn't know about this, so I posted in in the thread I'd initially went to here - http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview...atid=40&threadid=1941144&enterthread=y

I attempted to post in the Forum Problems topic, but it was locked.

This all happened around 6:35am CST.

This will happen to everyone who has their account set to auto login. Just log out and log back in.

This is so messed up. :(
I thought it would be fixed by this AM, but it looks like more of the same.

Same thing happened to me this morning. I hit up the forums and it asked for a secret password deal. I did my typical run-through and went to change the colors of the message boards and noticed I wasn't...I. Weird. At any rate I hope they fix it soon.
